Daidoh Limited Revises H1 Earnings Forecast Down on Acquisition Costs

Daidoh Limited (TSE:3205) has lowered its earnings guidance for the six months ending September 30, 2026, citing one-time expenses tied to the consolidation of 4strengX Co., Ltd.

RevenueJPY 19.1bnJPY 18.8bn-1.8%
Operating ProfitJPY 230MJPY 120M-47.8%

親会社株主に帰属する当期純利益JPY 180MJPY 130M-27.8%
1株当たり当期純利益JPY 6.60/shareJPY 4.74/shareJPY -1.86/share

The company expects to record JPY 151M in acquisition-related costs within operating expenses during the second quarter as 4strengX becomes a consolidated subsidiary. While the first quarter benefited from earnings contributions by Japan Blue Co., Ltd., driving operating profit into positive territory, the second quarter will face headwinds from these one-time charges. Management noted that underlying business momentum remains intact, with adjusted EBITDA (operating profit before goodwill amortization) projected JPY 359M above the prior forecast.

The revision reflects a temporary earnings trough in the interim period rather than a deterioration in operational performance. Daidoh maintained its full-year earnings forecast unchanged, signaling confidence in a recovery during the second half as 4strengX contributions and existing business improvements offset the near-term acquisition costs. Investors should monitor third-quarter results for evidence of the anticipated earnings rebound and the profitability trajectory of the newly consolidated subsidiary.
