net sales for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending February 2026 were JPY 94,483 million (up 5.9% YoY), operating income was JPY 23,532 million (down 8.1% YoY), and net income attributable to owners of parent was JPY 17,465 million (down 11.4% YoY).","jir_summary":"### Overview of Performance\nFor the cumulative consolidated period of the third quarter of the fiscal year ending February 2026, net sales reached JPY 94,483 million (up 5.9% YoY). Operating income was JPY 23,532 million (down 8.1% YoY), ordinary income was JPY 23,375 million (down 12.7% YoY), and net income attributable to owners of parent was JPY 17,465 million (down 11.4% YoY). The decrease in operating income mainly resulted from differences in the consolidation period of overseas subsidiaries consolidated in the previous fiscal year and increased SG&A expenses due to rising goodwill amortization. By segment, semiconductor and FPD-related equipment business net sales were JPY 94,014 million (up 6.0% YoY) with a segment profit of JPY 24,366 million (down 7.7% YoY), while the life sciences business recorded net sales of JPY 469 million (down 7.3% YoY) and a segment loss of JPY 224 million.\n\n### Financial Position and Future Outlook\nTotal assets at the end of the third quarter of the fiscal year ending February 2026 were JPY 182,695 million, a decrease of JPY 5,042 million from the previous fiscal year-end. Liabilities declined by JPY 10,416 million to JPY 48,604 million, and net assets increased by JPY 5,373 million to JPY 134,091 million. The increase in net assets is attributable to growth in retained earnings, although a reduction from treasury stock acquisition was also observed. Treasury stock held amounts to 2,969,260 shares. The annual dividend forecast remains unchanged at JPY 17.00. The full-year earnings forecast is also unchanged, with net sales expected at JPY 128,190 million (up 3.0% YoY) and operating income at JPY 30,345 million (down 5.2% YoY).","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: JPY 94,483 million (Up 5.9% YoY)\nOperating Income: JPY 23,532 million (Down 8.1% YoY)\nOrdinary Income: JPY 23,375 million (Down 12.7% YoY)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: JPY 17,465 million (Down 11.4% YoY)\nNumber of Treasury Stock: 2,969,260 shares (Increase YoY (34,860 shares in previous year same period))\nAmount of Treasury Stock Acquisition: JPY 4,999 million (Unknown)\nAnnual Dividend (Forecast): JPY 17.00 (Unchanged from previous period)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#LohtseCorporation, #FinancialSummary, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Net Sales: JPY 94,483 million (up 5.9% YoY)\nOperating Income: JPY 23,532 million (down 8.1% YoY)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: JPY 17,465 million (down 11.4% YoY)","jir_meta_title":"Lohtse Corporation Financial Summary for Q3 FY2026 - Net Sales Up 5.9%, Profit Decline","jir_meta_description":"Lohtse Corporation's Q3 Financial Summary for FY2026.
