Latest Tokyo Brief coverage on NICHIRIN CO., LTD., tracking filings, financial news, and market signals from Japan.
TSE:5184
Nichirin's first-half revenue rose 18.3% to ¥42.3bn, but its North America segment swung to a ¥250mn operating loss as US tariffs added a separate ¥400mn cost in the profit bridge; the company still held its full-year guidance unchanged.
Japan's antitrust watchdog found Nichirin left 25 subcontractors storing 1,048 molds and jigs for up to 22 months without orders or compensation, and has ordered the automotive-hose maker to settle any remaining balance beyond the ¥9.79mn it already paid.
