Komori Corporation (TSE:6349) revised its earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, adjusting revenue and some profit metrics downward due to external factors.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 124.5bn | JPY 118.4bn | -JPY 6.1bn (-4.9%) |
| Operating Profit | JPY 9.1bn | JPY 9.5bn | -JPY 0.4bn (-4.4%) |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 8.9bn | JPY 10.9bn | -JPY 2.0bn (-22.5%) |
| Net Profit | JPY 6.4bn | JPY 7.3bn | -JPY 0.9bn (-14.1%) |
| EPS | JPY 120.62 per share | JPY 137.57 per share | -JPY 16.95 per share (-14.1%) |
The company cited weaker-than-expected revenue, attributing the 4.9% decline to the impact of a weaker yen and disruptions from U.S. import tariffs. However, operating profit improved slightly due to strong sales of high-margin printing machines and robust performance in parts and services, alongside favorable foreign exchange effects. Ordinary income rose 22.5% due to increased operating profits and higher foreign exchange gains. Net profit increased 14.1% as a result of the improved ordinary income.
The revision highlights the company’s resilience amid external challenges, with improved profitability offsetting lower revenue. Investors should consider the impact of macroeconomic factors and currency movements on future performance.
