Star seeds Co.,Ltd. Raises Earnings Forecast on Strong Battery, Server Demand
Star seeds Co.,Ltd. (TSE:3083) has raised its earnings guidance for the fiscal 2027 interim period ending August 31, 2026, citing robust performance in grid-scale battery storage and GPU server sales.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 6.00bn | JPY 8.60bn | +43.3% |
| Operating Profit | JPY 250M | JPY 280M | +12.0% |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 200M | JPY 230M | +15.0% |
| 親会社株主 | — | — | — |
| １株当たり中間純利益 | JPY 30M | JPY 18M | -40.6% |
The apparel division is tracking to plan, but the company’s grid-scale battery storage business has outperformed initial expectations amid strong order momentum. More significantly, the GPU server division secured substantially larger orders than originally forecast, with revenue recognition now expected to accelerate in the interim period. The company also noted steady progress in quarterly earnings and cash flow stabilization across divisions.
The upward revision signals strengthening demand in energy storage and AI infrastructure segments, though management has maintained full-year guidance unchanged. This suggests the company may be reserving capacity for accelerated investment to support continued growth in these higher-margin businesses. International investors should note that ordinary income (keijo rieki) is a Japan-specific metric that includes non-operating financial items and differs from operating profit.
