Kyosan Electric Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Revises Earnings Forecast — Operating Profit Swings to Black
Kyosan Electric Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TSE:6742) has raised its earnings forecast for the interim period (six months ended September 30, 2026) of fiscal year ending March 2027, driven by stronger-than-expected demand in signal systems and power electronics businesses.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 32.0bn | JPY 34.0bn | +6.3% |
| Operating Profit | △670 | JPY 20M | — |
| Ordinary Income | △290 | JPY 400M | — |
| 親会社株主に帰属する中間純利益 | △150 | JPY 320M | — |
| １株当たり中間純利益 | △2.43 | 5.18 | — |
The company cited robust domestic and overseas capital investment demand in its signal systems division, with certain project revenue recognition accelerated from original timelines. The power electronics business has also benefited from expanding artificial intelligence-related investment demand. Beyond the top-line expansion of JPY 2.0bn, operational efficiency improvements have driven margin recovery, with the operating profit forecast swinging from a JPY 670M loss to JPY 20M profit. Ordinary income (keijo rieki), a Japan-specific metric encompassing non-operating items, is projected at JPY 400M versus the prior JPY 290M loss forecast.
The interim net profit attributable to parent company shareholders is now expected at JPY 320M, reversing the prior JPY 150M loss projection, with earnings per share (EPS) revised to JPY 5.18 from △2.43 per share. However, management has maintained its full-year earnings guidance pending further assessment of third and fourth quarter demand trends. The revision signals operational momentum in core business segments, though investors should monitor whether full-year guidance will be adjusted as visibility improves.
