TOKYO, May 12 (Pulse News Wire) – Amatei Incorporated (5952.T) reported its fiscal year 2026 earnings, showing a revenue decline compared to the previous year but higher operating profit. Sales was ¥5.583 billion from ¥5.7 billion, while operating profit rose slightly to ¥239 million from ¥240 million.
Despite initial plans expecting revenues of ¥5.7 billion, the company managed to increase profits despite lower sales. The decrease in residential construction starts was significant, down by -12.9% compared to the prior year, due largely to ongoing impacts from US tariff policies affecting automotive production. Looking ahead, Amatei anticipates continued challenges in the housing sector, noting a long-term trend of declining construction activity.
--- For the fiscal year ending March 2027, Amatei projects revenue to drop further to ¥5.374 billion, a reduction of 215%. However, operating profit is expected to remain stable at ¥235 million, marking a slight decrease from the previous year's figure. The company also highlighted potential risks stemming from geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, which could impact demand volatility.
Amatei’s management noted that these forecasts are based on available information as of the release date and may vary due to unforeseen factors.
