Koei Chemical Company, Limited Revises Earnings Forecast — Operating Profit +80.0%
Koei Chemical Company, Limited (TSE:4367) has revised its earnings forecast for the period ending March 31, 2026, citing improved production performance, cost-cutting measures, and higher asset valuations.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 17,000 | 17,000 | 0 |
| Operating Profit | 200 | 360 | +160 / +80.0% |
| Ordinary Income | 100 | 250 | +150 / +150.0% |
| Net Profit | △5,400 | △5,140 | +260 / +4.8% |
| EPS | △1,104.06 | △1,050.91 | +53.15 / +4.8% |
The company attributed the upward revision to the smooth completion of maintenance-related production for specific products, which exceeded expectations. Additionally, cost-cutting efforts led to reduced fixed costs, while higher year-end valuations of inventory items and refined impairment accounting reduced loss provisions.
The revised forecast indicates stronger profitability across all segments, with net profit improving and EPS rising, reflecting operational efficiency and asset value gains. Investors should note that the revision incorporates Japan-specific metrics such as ordinary income (keijo rieki), which includes non-operating items like interest and dividend income, and may differ from international reporting standards.
