Despite lower-than-expected sales due to falling electricity trading prices, operating income is projected to reach 116,664 million yen (+1.4%), pre-tax income 199,081 million yen (unknown), and net income attributable to owners of the parent 151,014 million yen (+25.8%), resulting in significantly higher net profit primarily owing to the sale of subsidiaries and increased financial income from yen depreciation.\n\n### Outlook and Impact\nAlthough a decrease in sales is anticipated, the increase in net income suggests a solid financial position. Given that some factors such as subsidiary sales and yen depreciation are transient, close attention should be paid to future earnings trends. The company plans to continue focusing on cost management and asset sales to improve profitability.","jir_financial_highlights":"Sales revenue: 734.7 billion yen (-3.3%)\nOperating income: 116,664 million yen (1.4%)\nPre-tax income: 199,081 million yen (unknown)\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent: 151,014 million yen (25.8%)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#HikariTsushin, #IRType:EarningsRevision, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Sales revenue: 734.7 billion yen (-3.3%)\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent: 151,014 million yen (+25.8%)\nPre-tax income: 199,081 million yen (unknown)","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Hikari Tsushin\u3011Revised Full-Year Financial Forecast for 2026 | Sales of 734.7 billion yen (-3.3%), Net Income of 15.1 billion yen (+25.8%)","jir_meta_description":"Hikari Tsushin has revised its full-year financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, expecting sales of 734.7 billion yen (-3.3%) and net income of 15.1 billion yen (+25.8%) to increase significantly.
