Tokyo Koki Lifts FY2026 Forecast on Strong Margin Expansion and Strategic Acquisitions
Tokyo Koki Co. Ltd. (株式会社東京衡機), a leading manufacturer of material testing machines and a specialist in engineering solutions such as locking nuts, has delivered a remarkable performance in its FY2026 full-year results, driven by robust revenue growth and a dramatic surge in operating profit. Furthermore, the company has raised its guidance for the upcoming fiscal year, signaling strong confidence in its strategic direction and operational improvements.
Tokyo Koki reported revenue of JPY 4.47bn, marking a 28.4% year-over-year (YoY) increase. Operating profit surged to JPY 152M, representing a staggering 508.0% YoY rise.

Business Overview As a specialist in material testing machines, Tokyo Koki maintains a strong position in its niche market. The company has also expanded into engineering solutions, including locking nuts, and has leveraged its acquisition of ASTOM to enhance its CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) capabilities, enabling a strategic shift toward solution-based business models.
Analysis The sharp increase in operating profit is primarily attributed to a combination of higher revenue and effective cost management, particularly within material testing machine sales. However, the operating margin remains below industry benchmarks, suggesting that Tokyo Koki still has room to improve overall profitability. Nevertheless, the significant rise in ordinary income and net profit suggests the company is successfully strengthening its overall financial structure, with the gains in operating profit playing a central role.
