TOKYO, Apr 13 (Pulse News Wire) – Life Foods CO.,LTD. (3065.T) reported its fiscal year 2026 (ending Feb 28, 2026) earnings, which fell short of previous forecasts due to higher-than-expected raw material costs and energy expenses.
According to the latest figures, revenue was ¥2.481 billion, operating profit was ¥105 million, ordinary profit was ¥97 million, and net income per share was ¥11. Compared to the earlier forecast, operating profit decreased by ¥87 million, ordinary profit dropped by ¥82 million, and net income declined by ¥87 million.
The company attributed the shortfall to escalating prices for key ingredients such as grains and meat, sustained high energy costs, and increased labor expenses due to minimum wage hikes. Despite efforts to revise menus, adjust pricing, and reduce administrative expenses, these measures did not offset the impact of rising input costs.
In comparison to the prior fiscal year ending Feb 28, 2025, revenue grew slightly but profits saw significant declines across all categories.
