Hirose Electric Co.,Ltd. Revises Earnings Forecast — Revenue Up 8.7%
Hirose Electric Co.,Ltd. (TSE:6806) raised its earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2027, citing stronger-than-expected foreign exchange tailwinds and robust demand in general industrial markets.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| 売上収益 | JPY 115.0bn | JPY 125.0bn | +8.7% |
| Operating Profit | JPY 23.0bn | JPY 25.5bn | +10.9% |
| 税引前利益 | JPY 24.0bn | JPY 27.5bn | +14.6% |
| 親会社の所有者に帰属する当期利益 | JPY 17.0bn | JPY 16.5bn | -2.9% |
| EPS | JPY 519.54/share | JPY 504.26/share | -2.9% |
For the full fiscal year, the connector and component manufacturer lifted revenue guidance to JPY 250.0bn from JPY 230.0bn, while operating profit rose to JPY 50.0bn from JPY 46.0bn. The interim period (April–September 2026) saw similar upward revisions. Management attributed the upgrade to favorable currency movements and accelerating demand across industrial segments. However, the company recorded an additional corporate income tax charge in the first quarter following a tax authority examination at a major subsidiary, partially offsetting operational gains.
Net profit attributable to parent shareholders edged up just 2.9% to JPY 35.0bn for the full year, constrained by the tax adjustment, while earnings per share rose modestly to JPY 1,069.63 from JPY 1,039.08. The company maintained its dividend forecast unchanged. The revision underscores solid operational momentum tempered by one-time tax headwinds, signaling underlying business resilience despite near-term earnings pressure.
