TOKYO, Apr 17 (Pulse News Wire) – Hachi-ban CO.,LTD. (9950.T) revised its full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 20, 2026.
The adjustments follow the initial forecast published on October 20, 2025. According to the revision, the company now expects operating revenue of ¥8.644 billion, up from the previous estimate of ¥8.572 billion. However, due to higher raw material costs and increased personnel expenses, the forecast for operating profit declined significantly to ¥4 million from ¥103 million previously. Similarly, ordinary profit is projected to drop to ¥207 million compared to ¥327 million earlier.
As a result, net income attributable to shareholders is anticipated to fall to ¥60 million from ¥180 million. The revisions reflect significant increases in selling promotion expenses and advertising costs, which exceeded initial expectations. Despite stable sales figures, these factors led to lower profitability projections across key metrics. The company noted that the forecasts are based on currently available information and certain reasonable assumptions but acknowledged that actual results could differ substantially due to various factors.
