RISO KYOIKU GROUP CORPORATION [4714.T]
TOKYO, Jan 09 (Pulse News Wire) – Riso Kyoiku Group Corporation (4714.T) downgraded its fiscal year 2026 outlook due to lower-than-expected student enrollment and rising costs. For the fiscal year ending February 2026, the company now forecasts revenue of ¥34.2 billion, operating profit of ¥2.47 billion, ordinary profit of ¥2.5 billion, and net profit per share of ¥9.05.
Previously, the company had projected revenue of ¥36 billion, operating profit of ¥3.145 billion, ordinary profit of ¥3.14 billion, and net profit per share of ¥11.76. The revised figures represent decreases of 5.1%, 22.9%, 51.6%, and 23.2% respectively compared to the initial estimates. The downward revision was primarily driven by lower-than-anticipated student enrollments in the learning center and early childhood education segments, leading to missed sales targets.
Additionally, increased rent expenses and higher personnel costs contributed to reduced profitability across various stages. Despite the lower forecast, the company remains committed to stable dividend payouts. The board expects to maintain the previously announced dividend of ¥10 per share for the fiscal year ending February 2026.
