FUKUTOME MEAT PACKERS,LTD. [2291.T]

TOKYO, Feb 12 (Pulse News Wire) – Fukutome Meat Packers,ltd. (2291.T) revised its fiscal year 2026 earnings forecast downward due to expected declines in meat sales amid unstable market conditions.

For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, the company now projects revenue of ¥24.00 billion, operating profit of ¥△¥700 million, ordinary profit of ¥△¥660 million, and net income attributable to shareholders of ¥410 million per share. This represents a decrease compared to previous forecasts, with a reduction rate of 2.8% for revenue and 14.5% for net income per share.

The revision reflects lower expectations in the meat sector, offset somewhat by increased sales of new product MIRAI and expanded distribution channels in processed food products. However, rising costs for raw materials and logistics continue to strain profitability despite efforts to improve factory productivity.

Additionally, the company anticipates recording gains from fixed asset disposals totaling ¥460 million and investment securities sales of ¥290 million in the fourth quarter, which partially offsets the overall negative outlook.
