SEKI CO.,LTD. [7857.T]
TOKYO — SEKI Co., Ltd. reported its third quarter earnings for the fiscal year ending March 2026 on February 6, 2026. The company, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange under code number 7857, disclosed that its consolidated sales revenue decreased by 3.4 percent to ¥8.724 billion from ¥9.031 billion in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. Operating income and ordinary income also declined significantly, showing decreases of 100.5 percent and 100 percent respectively.
The company's net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company fell sharply to negative ¥22 million compared to positive ¥155 million in the same quarter last year. This represents a substantial drop in profitability. Additionally, the comprehensive income for the current quarter stood at ¥653 million, marking an increase of 96.7 percent over the prior year’s figure of ¥332 million. However, this growth is largely attributed to non-operating factors as operating performance has weakened considerably.
Regarding equity per share, it dropped to ¥3,858.99 from ¥3,729.02 in the comparable period last year, reflecting the impact of reduced profits. Total assets were slightly higher at ¥18.997 billion compared to ¥18.738 billion in the previous year, while equity increased to ¥16.320 billion from ¥15.779 billion. Consequently, the company's capital adequacy ratio improved marginally to 84.6 percent from 82.9 percent.
SEKI did not announce any changes in dividend policy during the reporting period. For the fiscal year ending March 2026, the interim dividend was set at ¥13 per share, which aligns with the projected annual dividend of ¥26 per share. There have been no revisions to the previously announced dividend expectations.
Looking ahead, SEKI provided guidance for the full fiscal year ending March 2026. Sales revenue is forecasted to grow by 3.8 percent to ¥12.767 billion, but operating income and ordinary income are expected to decline by 49.2 percent and 33.2 percent respectively. Net income attributable to shareholders of the parent company is anticipated to decrease by 19 percent to ¥227 million, leading to diluted earnings per share of ¥54.50.
In terms of significant accounting matters, SEKI noted the inclusion of PureFlat Corporation within its consolidation scope starting from this quarter. No other notable changes were made to accounting policies or estimates, nor were there any adjustments to prior periods' figures. The company emphasized that forward-looking statements contained in their report are based on assumptions derived from currently available information and reasonable judgments, cautioning that actual results may vary due to various factors beyond their control.
