IVY COSMETICS CORPORATION [4918.T]
TOKYO, May 14 (Pulse News Wire) – Ivy Cosmetics Corporation (4918.T) reported today that ongoing tensions in the Middle East, stemming from recent attacks involving Israel and Iran, could affect its supply chain and operations. Specifically, disruptions in raw material supplies such as naphtha could lead to production delays and higher costs.
The company noted that while existing product manufacturing remains unaffected due to early procurement efforts, uncertainties persist around new products and some existing items. As a result, revenue forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 2026 have been adjusted downward to ¥1.380 billion, down from prior estimates. Operating profit is now expected to be ¥150 million, and net income is projected at ¥120 million.
In addition to potential production issues, rising raw material prices and logistical challenges could increase manufacturing costs by approximately 10%. Logistics expenses, including transportation fees, are also anticipated to rise due to fluctuating oil prices. Despite these risks, Ivy Cosmetics maintains a robust financial position, with cash reserves standing at ¥1.044 billion as of March 2026 and a solid capital ratio of 72.4%.
