Tokyo Board Industries Co., Ltd. Revises Earnings Forecast — FY2027 Net Profit JPY 3.57bn
Tokyo Board Industries Co., Ltd. (TSE:7815) has revised its consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending February 2027, providing specific projections after previously withholding guidance due to uncertainty from a factory fire.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 未定 | JPY 6.15bn | — |
| Operating Profit | 未定 | △428M | — |
| Ordinary Income | 未定 | △589M | — |
| Net Profit | 未定 | JPY 3.57bn | — |
| EPS | 未定 | JPY 1,378.70/share | — |
The company’s Sakura plant suffered a minor fire on November 1, 2025, forcing production suspension. Management initially marked earnings forecasts as “undecided” pending damage assessment. The facility resumed operations on June 10, 2026, and has since entered a gradual ramp-up phase from trial production. With production visibility now established and fixed asset divestiture results disclosed on June 26, 2026, the company released revised projections based on currently available information.
The revised forecast reveals operational headwinds: operating profit and ordinary income (keijo rieki)—a Japan-specific metric encompassing non-operating items such as interest and dividend income—are both projected at negative JPY 428M and JPY 589M respectively. However, net profit attributable to parent company shareholders reaches JPY 3.57bn, supported by gains from the asset sale. This divergence signals that while the core business remains under pressure during the recovery phase, extraordinary gains are offsetting operational losses. Investors should monitor the Sakura plant’s production ramp trajectory and underlying operational profitability as the company normalizes post-fire operations.
