Nikki Co., Ltd. Raises FY2026 Guidance on Strong Q4 Performance
Nikki Co., Ltd. (TSE:6042) has revised upward its earnings and dividend forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 2026, citing robust fourth-quarter sales and favorable currency tailwinds.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 8.50bn | JPY 9.27bn | +9.0% |
| Operating Profit | JPY 800M | JPY 1.10bn | +38.1% |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 850M | JPY 1.18bn | +38.5% |
| 親会社株主に帰属する当期純利益 | JPY 650M | JPY 955M | +46.9% |
| 1株当たり当期純利益 | JPY 348.49/share | JPY 511.91/share | +JPY 163.42/share |
The company raised full-year revenue guidance by JPY 769M to JPY 9.27bn, reflecting stronger-than-expected fourth-quarter demand. Management attributed the upward revision to solid sales momentum in the final quarter, combined with a weaker yen environment that bolstered operating profit and ordinary income (keijo rieki)—a Japan-specific metric encompassing operating profit plus non-operating financial items. Net profit is now forecast at JPY 955M, up 47% from the prior JPY 650M estimate, while earnings per share (EPS) are projected at JPY 511.91 versus JPY 348.49 previously.
The company also increased its year-end dividend to JPY 120.00 per share from JPY 110.00, reflecting confidence in improved profitability. The across-the-board upward revision—spanning revenue through net profit—signals that Nikki’s operational performance has exceeded initial expectations. The favorable currency backdrop and sustained demand provide a constructive backdrop for the remainder of the fiscal year, though investors should monitor exchange rate movements given their material impact on reported results.
