While net sales are unchanged at 362,000 hundred million yen, operating income, ordinary income, and net income attributable to owners of the parent have been substantially revised downward due to weak demand in the domestic steel business and deteriorating outlook for iron scrap prices. Overseas, Vietnam and North America are generally progressing as planned, but production shortfalls and increases in depreciation expenses at the U.S. site have had an adverse impact, leading to a challenging outlook for the second half.\n\n### Outlook and Causes Going Forward\nThe domestic steel business is expected to experience weak demand in the second half, with shipments forecast to be below the first half. Higher-than-assumed iron scrap prices and compression of trading margins are weighing on results. Overseas, Vietnam and Canada are on plan, but production issues caused by aging equipment at the U.S. site are expected to continue causing losses. Reflecting these factors, the company has revised down its profit metrics for the full year.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: 362,000 hundred million yen (Same as previous forecast (A))\nOperating Income: 9,500 hundred million yen (-6,000 hundred million yen)\nOrdinary Income: 9,000 hundred million yen (-5,000 hundred million yen)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 4,800 hundred million yen (-3,600 hundred million yen)\nNet Income per Share: 110.45 yen (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#KyoeiSteel, #RevisionToEarningsGuidance","jir_key_figures":"Net Sales: 362,000 hundred million yen\nOperating Income: 9,500 hundred million yen\nOrdinary Income: 9,000 hundred million yen","jir_meta_title":"Kyoei Steel Ltd. \u2014 Revision to Earnings Guidance | FY ending March 2027 Outlook","jir_meta_description":"Kyoei Steel Ltd. has revised down its earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2027 due to weak domestic demand and increased costs at overseas sites.
