Net sales are revised to 13,290 million yen, operating income to 33 million yen, ordinary income to 37 million yen, interim net income attributable to owners of parent to -92 million yen, and interim net income per share to -4.76 yen, all representing downward revisions from the previous forecast. The primary reasons are shortfalls in sales, underperformance in equity-method investment gains\/losses, and impairment losses booked for stores decided to be closed. There is no change to the full-year forecast at this time; any future revisions will be disclosed promptly. There is no change to the dividend forecast.\n\n### Outlook and Impact for Investors\nThe company explains that the magnitude of the second-quarter revision has a limited impact on the full-year forecast, but downside risk to sales and profits may persist. Store closures and impairment charges could pressure results in the short term, so future performance trends should be monitored. While the unchanged dividend forecast indicates maintenance of shareholder return policy, investors should pay attention to the projected interim deficit and the path to recovery.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: 13,290 million yen (From previous forecast A 13,500 million yen: -210 million yen)\nOperating Income: 33 million yen (From previous forecast 60 million yen: -27 million yen)\nOrdinary Income: 37 million yen (From previous forecast 80 million yen: -43 million yen)\nInterim Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: -92 million yen (From previous forecast 40 million yen: -132 million yen)\nInterim Net Income per Share: -4.76 yen (Previous forecast +2.07 yen \u2192 now -4.76 yen)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#NoShareBuyback, #NoRevisionToDividendDespiteEarningsForecastChange","jir_key_figures":"Net Sales: 13,290 million yen (from previous forecast 13,500 million yen: -210 million yen)\nOperating Income: 33 million yen (from previous forecast 60 million yen: -27 million yen)\nOrdinary Income: 37 million yen (from previous forecast 80 million yen: -43 million yen)\nInterim Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: -92 million yen (from previous forecast 40 million yen: -132 million yen)\nInterim Net Income per Share: -4.76 yen (previous forecast +2.07 yen \u2192 -4.76 yen)","jir_meta_title":"Chimney Co., Ltd. \u2014 Notice of Revision to Earnings Guidance | November 2026","jir_meta_description":"Chimney Co., Ltd. has revised its consolidated earnings guidance for the second quarter of FY ending March 2027: net sales 13,290 million yen, operating income 33 million yen, ordinary income 37 million yen, interim net income -92 million yen.
