TOKYO, Mar 23 (Pulse News Wire) – Kimura CO.,LTD. (7461.T) revised its fiscal year 2026 earnings forecast downward due to revenue declines across its wholesale and retail operations.
For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, the company now expects consolidated sales of ¥14.89 billion, operating profit of ¥984 million, ordinary profit of ¥568 million, and net income attributable to shareholders of ¥568 million per share. This represents a decrease of ¥1.7 billion in sales, ¥646 million in operating profit, ¥587 million in ordinary profit, and ¥332 million in net income compared to previous estimates.
The revision reflects reduced revenues in the wholesale sector due to prolonged low housing starts and increased selling and administrative expenses, particularly labor costs. In the retail division, higher opening costs in Joifurueekee Kushiroten and intensified competition led to sluggish performance in existing stores, further impacting profitability.
Management noted that while these figures are based on currently available data, future results could vary due to various factors.
