for the fiscal year ending March 2026. Net sales are projected at 77,100 million yen (up 0.7% from the previous forecast), operating income at 1,400 million yen (up 100.0%), ordinary income at 2,200 million yen (up 46.7%), and net income attributable to owners of parent at 1,200 million yen (up 50.0%). Non-consolidated results are also expected to exceed previous forecasts, with net sales of 63,200 million yen (up 1.4%), ordinary income of 1,500 million yen (up 66.7%), and net income of 800 million yen (up 100.0%).\n\n### Reasons for Revision and Future Outlook\nThe primary reason for this revision is the increase in net sales due to higher-than-expected other income on a standalone basis, coupled with increased profits resulting from effective cost deployment. Going forward, the company will continue to monitor changes in market and business environments closely while aiming to achieve its performance targets with certainty. However, the forecast figures are based on current information and may fluctuate depending on future circumstances.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales (Consolidated): 77,100 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +0.7%)\nOperating Income (Consolidated): 1,400 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +100.0%)\nOrdinary Income (Consolidated): 2,200 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +46.7%)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent (Consolidated): 1,200 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +50.0%)\nNet Income Per Share (Consolidated): 42.38 yen (Increase compared to previous forecast)\nNet Sales (Non-consolidated): 63,200 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +1.4%)\nOrdinary Income (Non-consolidated): 1,500 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +66.7%)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent (Non-consolidated): 800 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +100.0%)\nNet Income Per Share (Non-consolidated): 28.25 yen (Increase compared to previous forecast)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#WOWOW, #EarningsGuidanceRevision, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Consolidated Net Sales: 77,100 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +0.7%)\nConsolidated Ordinary Income: 2,200 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +46.7%)\nConsolidated Net Income: 1,200 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +50.0%)","jir_meta_title":"[WOWOW] Upward Revision of Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 Earnings Guidance | Net Income Expected to Increase by 50%","jir_meta_description":"WOWOW, Inc. has upwardly revised its full-year consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2026 to net sales of 771.0 billion yen, ordinary income of 2.2 billion yen, and net income of 1.2 billion yen.
