Okuwa Co., Ltd. Revises Earnings Forecast — Net Profit Falls 67.5%
Okuwa Co., Ltd. (TSE:8217) has revised its full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending February 2026, citing weaker-than-expected performance in its supermarket business.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 259.0bn | JPY 252.6bn | -6.4bn |
| Operating Profit | JPY 2.10bn | JPY 1.87bn | -230m |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 2.10bn | JPY 1.97bn | -130m |
| Net Profit | JPY 800m | JPY 260m | -540m |
| EPS | JPY 19.33 per share | JPY 6.34 per share | -13.0 |
The company cited lower-than-expected customer traffic in its supermarket business as the primary reason for the downward revision, leading to reduced revenue, operating profit, and ordinary income. Additionally, a 934m yen impairment loss recorded in the fourth quarter further dragged down net profit.
The earnings revision signals continued challenges in driving customer growth, which could pressure profitability. The impairment loss also highlights underlying asset risks, raising concerns about the company’s long-term financial health. Investors should monitor subsequent guidance for strategic adjustments to address these headwinds.
