Asante Co., Ltd. Cuts Earnings Forecast — Operating Profit Down 40.9%
Asante Co., Ltd. (アサンテ株式会社, TSE:6073), a provider of termite control and home maintenance services, has sharply downgraded its earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | ¥14.9bn | ¥14.3bn | -¥600mn (-4.0%) |
| Operating Profit | ¥1.32bn | ¥780mn | -¥540mn (-40.9%) |
| Ordinary Income | ¥1.31bn | ¥780mn | -¥530mn (-40.5%) |
| Net Profit | ¥820mn | ¥240mn | -¥580mn (-70.7%) |
| EPS | ¥84.00 | ¥24.57 | -¥59.43 (-70.7%) |
The company cited three key factors for the downward revision: delayed improvement in consumer sentiment reducing demand for its services, unstable weather and temperatures suppressing termite activity and related inspection demand, and the recording of a special loss from fixed asset impairment charges.
The combination of weaker top-line performance and the impairment charge has resulted in a sharp compression in net profit. No change was announced to the dividend forecast.
