Medipal sales top ¥3.82tn as parent profit rises to ¥42.53bn

Net sales reached ¥3.82tn, ordinary income ¥75.72bn and parent profit ¥42.53bn in the year to March 2026, all above a year earlier. Big numbers, yes, but still from a backward-looking annual report rather than new guidance.

Medipal kept its growth machine running in the year to March 2026, with net sales reaching ¥3.82tn, ordinary income rising to ¥75.72bn and profit attributable to owners of the parent climbing to ¥42.53bn.

Net sales¥3.67tn¥3.82tn
Ordinary income¥65.26bn¥75.72bn
Parent profit¥40.28bn¥42.53bn

That is large in absolute terms and still notable as a trend rather than a one-off spike. Net sales were ¥3.67tn the previous year and ¥3.29tn four years earlier, while ordinary income was ¥65.26bn and parent profit ¥40.28bn a year earlier.

The filing summary also points readers to Good Distribution Practice and climate-related disclosure via Medipal’s TCFD materials, so the results are presented alongside compliance and sustainability references, not just yen totals. Investors looking for a fresh outlook will have to wait: this is the group’s annual securities report for the year ended March 31, 2026, not a new guidance release.
