Kimura Co., Ltd. Revises Earnings Forecast — Net Profit
Kimura Co., Ltd. (TSE:74610) has revised its earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, citing weaker-than-expected performance in both its wholesale and retail divisions.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 39.4bn | JPY 37.7bn | △JPY 1.7bn (△4.3%) |
| Operating Profit | JPY 1.63bn | JPY 0.98bn | △JPY 0.65bn (△39.6%) |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 1.68bn | JPY 1.09bn | △JPY 0.59bn (△34.9%) |
| Net Profit | JPY 0.90bn | JPY 0.57bn | △JPY 0.33bn (△36.9%) |
| EPS | JPY 60.68 per share | JPY 38.29 per share | △JPY 22.39 per share (△36.9%) |
The company cited a decline in revenue from its wholesale business due to prolonged weakness in residential construction starts, which led to reduced sales and higher selling, general, and administrative expenses. In its retail segment, the opening costs for the Joyful EKKA Kushiro store increased, while existing store sales softened due to intensified competition.
The downward revision reflects ongoing challenges in both business lines, highlighting the impact of subdued construction activity and competitive pressures on Kimura’s financial outlook. Investors should monitor further developments in these sectors for potential implications on the company’s long-term performance.
