AI要約
Overview of earnings guidance revision
Today, the consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2027 has been revised. We expect net sales of 9,500 million yen, operating income of 320 million yen, ordinary income of 590 million yen, net income attributable to owners of the parent of 440 million yen, and earnings per share of 41.31 yen. Compared with the previous forecast, net sales are flat, operating income is upwardly revised by 60%, and both ordinary income and net income remain largely undetermined in the current disclosures. The reasons include that the anticipated impact of fuel prices due to Middle East tensions was conservatively estimated, but the impact in the first half was smaller than expected, and cost-reduction effects are expected to contribute.
Background of the revision and outlook
The revision was prompted by the fact that the earnings forecast for the equity-method affiliate Obecks Co., Ltd. was undetermined, so the initial announcement delayed the revision. With information now available, the revision was implemented. Actual performance may again change due to future factors. Based on the assumption that the fuel price impact in the first half is not as material as expected and that cost-cutting effects will contribute, the full-year forecast figures have been updated.
