Japan Earnings News (Page 4)

Results, forecasts and guidance revisions from Japan's listed companies, in English.

  1. TDC Soft sales rise to ¥48.36bn, profit to ¥3.88bn

    Sales rose to ¥48.36bn, ordinary income to ¥5.36bn and profit attributable to owners to ¥3.88bn. The five-year series in the filing keeps pointing the same way, which is not the worst read-through for enterprise IT demand.

  2. FreeBit raises sales and operating profit outlook, but CountUp investigation keeps final numbers open

    FreeBit lifted full-year sales guidance to ¥62.5bn from ¥60.0bn and operating profit to ¥6.65bn from ¥6.1bn, citing stronger MVNO support, broader apartment internet services and higher affiliate transaction volumes. Ordinary profit and net income stayed at ¥5.77bn and ¥3.5bn because the CountUp investigation and audit are still ongoing, and the company said the financial statements will move to a later continued session after the July 23 shareholder meeting.

  3. Headwaters corrects full-year EPS forecast to ¥72.92, leaves sales and profit targets intact

    The company corrected projected full-year EPS to ¥72.92 from ¥101.66, but left net sales at ¥8.56bn, operating income at ¥753mn and profit attributable at ¥391mn. So this is a per-share math repair, not a fresh change in the underlying business plan.

  4. Capcom nears ¥200bn in sales as profit figures hit five-year highs

    Net sales reached ¥195.36 billion, ordinary income ¥74.13 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent ¥54.58 billion, all the top figures in the filing's five-year summary. A separate internal control report said controls were effective and highlighted game software work in progress and deferred revenue tied to free downloadable content as key review areas.

  5. TO Books revenue rises 25%, proposes ¥76 first post-listing dividend

    Revenue rose 25.1% to ¥11.8 billion and operating profit 72.7% to ¥1.98 billion in the year ended April. It also proposed a ¥76 first post-listing dividend, though next year's profit guide cools.

  6. tripla turns an ¥8m revenue beat into a much bigger profit upgrade

    Full-year revenue guidance rose by just ¥8 million to ¥3,501 million, while operating profit was lifted to ¥822 million and ordinary profit to ¥927 million as tripla Book volume and take rate stayed on plan, costs came down and cash from advance payments earned more interest. Management says the rest-of-year assumptions on interest income and foreign exchange remain conservative.

  7. CAICA DIGITAL lifts operating profit as IoT joins the mix, but nursing-care DX is still waiting for earnings

    First-half revenue rose 17.5% to ¥2,989 million and operating profit more than doubled to ¥52 million, helped by steady IT-services demand and NEX's first-half IoT contribution. The Zenko acquisition has so far changed the balance sheet faster than earnings, though: goodwill stood at ¥2,289 million after a ¥207 million impairment, while Zenko's profit and loss only starts flowing through from the third quarter and full-year guidance stayed unchanged.

  8. Smaregi turns recurring revenue into faster profit growth and a bigger dividend

    Revenue in the year to April rose 20.6% to ¥13.3 billion, but operating profit climbed 35.2% to ¥3.2 billion as monthly fees grew 31.7% and advertising and hiring costs were managed more tightly. Cash and equivalents ended April at ¥8.1 billion, the annual dividend rose to ¥24 a share, and the company plans ¥29 for the coming year.

  9. Morpho cuts year outlook despite subsidy income, books ¥183 million of reform losses

    First-half sales fell 24.8% to ¥1,152 million and the operating loss widened to ¥539 million, even after ¥39 million of subsidy income helped below the operating line. The company now expects a full-year operating loss of ¥350 million and a net loss of ¥520 million, after also booking ¥183 million of reform-related special losses.

  10. Ridge-i lifts earnings outlook as larger AI projects widen margins

    The company raised revenue guidance for the year ending July 2026 to ¥2,900 million from ¥2,800 million, but lifted operating and ordinary profit much more sharply, to ¥500 million from ¥345 million, on larger generative-AI projects, better utilisation and lower selling costs. Net profit also gets a one-off lift from an expected ¥79 million gain on the planned sale of Star Music Entertainment to SBI Holdings, subject to shareholder approval.

  11. gumi stayed profitable, but crypto gains did much of the work

    Sales in the year to April rose 2.7% to ¥9,183 million and ordinary profit edged up to ¥2,170 million, but operating profit fell 77.5% to ¥83 million and net income attributable to owners dropped 29.5%. Crypto valuation gains of ¥2,632 million helped bridge the gap, cash and equivalents fell to ¥3,393 million from ¥6,078 million, and the year-end dividend stayed at ¥0.00.

  12. Hatena swings to loss outlook after 1,179 million yen funds-outflow charge

    The company now expects a net loss of ¥767 million for the year ending July 31 after booking the current maximum identified damage from April's funds-outflow incident at ¥1,179 million as an extraordinary loss. A ¥357 million deferred-tax benefit softens the accounting hit, but Hatena still swung from a previous forecast for ¥101 million of profit, and it still has not disclosed how much money may be recovered or when the special investigation committee will report.

  13. Visional holds targets as BizReach cools and HRMOS adds Thinkings

    Visional lifted nine-month revenue 24.3% to ¥73.157 billion and operating profit 12.2% to ¥19.612 billion, enough to keep its full-year outlook unchanged. BizReach remained the profit engine, with nine-month sales of ¥59.714 billion and a 42.7% pre-corporate-allocation operating margin. HRMOS grew faster, with sales up 77.7% to ¥6.653 billion, helped by the inclusion of Thinkings' sonar ATS business, though management says the acquisition effect on progress against the full-year sales plan is minor.

  14. Raccoon plans a profit dip to widen its B2B platform

    Raccoon finished the year to April 2026 with ¥6.574 billion in revenue and ¥1.32 billion in operating profit, but it is guiding for operating profit to fall to ¥600 million in the coming year as promotion spending rises. Management said fourth-quarter tests convinced it that heavier customer acquisition can accelerate growth, and its new midterm plan shifts attention toward adjusted EBITDA during a more M&A-minded phase. New services including URIHOmini, BizCheck and SD Direct show the practical version of that strategy: widen the funnel now, hope the margins catch up later.

  15. Visional keeps full-year target unchanged as BizReach and HRMOS power nine-month growth

    Revenue rose 24.3% to ¥73.2 billion and operating profit 12.2% to ¥19.6 billion through April, with BizReach still doing most of the work at ¥59.7 billion of revenue and a 42.7% margin. HRMOS grew faster, with revenue up 77.7% to ¥6.65 billion, but its profit contribution remained thin. Management left the year-ending-July outlook unchanged because it still plans heavier investment into the final quarter.

  16. Karadanote returns to profit on lower sales, restarts shareholder benefits and approves FPO loan

    Nine-month non-consolidated revenue fell 32.0% to JPY 731.7m after lower-margin business was trimmed, but operating profit swung to JPY 146.4m from a JPY 65.8m loss. The company also restarted shareholder benefits using a fixed JPY 15m pool for eligible holders and approved a JPY 600m borrowing to fund the FPO share acquisition.

  17. Tobila Systems lifts sales, but profit still slips

    Tobila Systems is still finding demand, just not leverage. First-half non-consolidated revenue rose 22.0% to JPY 1.674bn, helped by security and solution sales, but operating profit fell 7.7% to JPY 485m and net profit slipped 5.1% to JPY 335m; management kept the full-year outlook and its JPY 20 year-end dividend plan unchanged. More anti-fraud spending is useful. Turning it into more earnings would be nicer.

  18. pluszero keeps full-year plan after a profitable first half

    First-half non-consolidated sales rose 6.8% to JPY 851.5m and operating profit 7.5% to JPY 312.2m, and management left the full-year plan unchanged at JPY 2.01bn of sales and JPY 743m of operating profit. Presentation slides showed profit running ahead of internal half-year targets, while a same-day stock-option cancellation was described as having only a minor earnings impact.

  19. ANYCOLOR points to slower profits after a year of 30% sales growth

    ANYCOLOR's year to April was still robust on a non-consolidated basis, with revenue up 29.9% to JPY 55,681m and operating profit up 23.9% to JPY 20,172m, plus a dividend rise to JPY 75 a share. The mood shift is in next year's guide: revenue is seen at JPY 56,000m to JPY 60,000m and operating profit at JPY 18,000m to JPY 20,000m, with a JPY 62 dividend forecast, a clear message that growth is still there but the margins may have peaked for now.

  20. HEROZ net profit outlook jumps on subsidiary sale gain, even as bitcoin loss trims ordinary profit

    HEROZ nudged up revenue for the year ended April to ¥6.424 billion from ¥6.4 billion and operating profit to ¥523 million from ¥500 million, but net profit attributable to owners is now seen at ¥376 million versus ¥50 million. The bridge is a ¥311.135 million gain on a subsidiary sale and a ¥99.249 million tax adjustment gain, partly offset by ¥114.838 million of transaction costs and a ¥30.065 million bitcoin valuation loss, which is why ordinary profit edges down to ¥408 million.

  21. CIJ lifts outlook and dividend as public and energy orders stay firm

    The company raised its sales, profit and dividend outlook for the year to June, citing firm public-sector and energy orders plus the consolidation of Infotec Solution. Useful read-through, but not a pure organic-growth signal: the filing does not split the lift between demand and consolidation.

  22. Media Kobo scraps delayed content system, books ¥87 million hit and cuts outlook

    The company will halt a delayed content-production framework, trim outsourced work and expects about ¥46 million of savings this year, while booking roughly ¥87 million of impairment losses. After first-half revenue fell 13.5% and operating loss widened, management also cut full-year guidance sharply, so this reads as clean-up before any credible recovery story.

  23. BlueMeme trims profit outlook as hiring push and outsourcing squeeze margins

    BlueMeme barely changed revenue guidance for the year ending March 2026, trimming it to ¥3,299 million from ¥3,300 million. Profit took the hit instead: operating profit is now seen at ¥125 million versus ¥150 million, ordinary profit at ¥130 million versus ¥150 million, and net profit attributable to parent shareholders at ¥83 million versus ¥100 million. Management blamed heavier operating expenses from engineer recruitment, outsourced support while new hires are still in training, and higher hiring costs. The company also says the figures remain unaudited estimates, and its June 26 annual meeting will need a continuation session because audit procedures on the year's accounts are not yet complete.

  24. G-Beemap deepens year-end loss after pulling forward inventory write-down

    The catch: booking a ¥36,237 thousand impairment on slow-moving communications equipment widened the year-ended March 2026 net loss to ¥151,553 thousand from ¥115,316 thousand and cut net assets to ¥502,808 thousand. Because the charge was brought forward from later periods, the next year's profit guide improved even with sales guidance unchanged at ¥1,900 million.
