Results, forecasts and guidance revisions from Japan's listed companies, in English.
Tohoku Bank's held-to-maturity bonds carry a ¥2.14bn unrealized loss, worth more than the ¥1.69bn net profit it booked for the year to March 2026, even as it holds its current-year earnings forecast steady.
B-R 31 Ice Cream, which runs Baskin-Robbins in Japan, booked record first-half sales of ¥18.55bn on a 21st straight quarter of same-store growth, yet operating profit fell to ¥1.42bn from ¥1.70bn as raw-material costs, the weak yen, and heavier marketing and shipping bills ate into margins.
KOA CORPORATION's upgraded guidance follows a first quarter in which net profit nearly quadrupled, and the company raised its annual dividend forecast to ¥63 a share from ¥39, crediting AI-related equipment demand in Asia and automotive orders in China rather than a broad components rebound.
Okinawa Financial Group's banking subsidiary disclosed a ¥10.4bn unrealized loss on held-to-maturity bonds as of June 30, 2026, a sum equal to 92% of the group's profit for the year ended March 2026, and kept its full-year earnings and dividend forecasts unchanged.
Faster customer acceptance inspections, not a jump in AI chip orders, drove a 16% profit beat for DISCO in the June quarter, and the Tokyo chip-tool maker used the visibility to raise its interim dividend to ¥171 a share and disclose second-quarter guidance for the first time this year.
OBIC's quarterly net profit rose 16.3% on stronger ERP and cloud demand, but a swing in unrealized securities valuations cut comprehensive income by more than three-quarters, and the software vendor left its full-year guidance untouched anyway.
Net profit at Japan's ERP bellwether OBIC rose 16.3% to ¥22.7bn in the June quarter, with its cloud-based system-support business growing faster than the core ERP software it sells directly to large and mid-sized firms, even as the company flags growing caution among corporate buyers.
Higher-than-expected interest income at Juroku Bank pushed its parent, Juroku Financial Group, to raise near-term dividend guidance and lift its five-year return-on-equity target from 6% to 7% or more, a small but concrete sign of Japan's rate shift reaching a regional lender's bottom line.
Komehyo's June sales rose 30.5% year-on-year to ¥21.26bn, a marked slowdown from April's 51.5% and May's 50.5% gains, though duty-free shoppers still accounted for nearly 16% of the month's revenue and retail sales ran ahead of plan.
Insource will cancel up to 4.7% of its shares and lift its year-end dividend to ¥35.00, using a ten-year Tokyo Stock Exchange anniversary to bundle capital returns onto nine-month profit growth of 6.2%.
Mito Securities says preliminary operating profit for the April-June quarter rose 730% to ¥1.98bn, with investment-trust and fund-wrap fee income cited as the main driver ahead of the official July 30 results.
Tripleize is exiting the GPU server business it runs through subsidiary Zerofield and has withdrawn its full-year profit forecast until a sale price and closing timeline are set, even as its core AI Solutions unit posts record nine-month profit.
Marusan Securities says preliminary quarterly operating profit rose to ¥1.75bn from ¥395mn a year earlier, crediting higher stock brokerage commissions and investment trust sales fees, with audited figures due July 30.
Occupancy held at 98% and renewal rents rose 7.0%, the steepest increase since Nippon Prologis REIT listed in 2013, but net income still fell 6.2% for the year to May 2026 because gains on property sales were smaller than a year earlier. The REIT is also swapping a Funabashi warehouse for one in Ichikawa with Japan Logistics Fund in three stages running through February 2027.
Demae-can now expects a ¥7.9bn operating loss for the year to August 2026, almost double its October guidance, after order volumes and gross merchandise value fell short through the third quarter.
Orders from semiconductor companies near JSH's Kumamoto farm ran so far ahead of plan that the disability-employment and home-care operator more than doubled its profit forecast and unveiled its first medium-term plan, targeting operating profit of ¥1.321bn by the year to March 2029.
Technoflex raised its full-year operating profit guide 50% to ¥6.0bn as clean-energy orders quadrupled and semiconductor-manufacturer sales rose 70%, more than making up for a planned 60% drop in semiconductor-construction orders.
West Holdings' year-old battery storage arm turned ¥8.5bn of sales into ¥3.0bn of operating profit in nine months, covering a delivery slowdown in the company's older non-FIT solar business.
GLP J-REIT is taking on ¥41bn in new bank debt to close a ¥40.7bn purchase of three warehouses priced around 8% below appraisal, and using CPI-linked rents to push its distribution forecast for the year to February 2027 up 3% and its underlying rent-growth target well past its own medium-term goal.
A weaker yen and slow-to-arrive integration synergies force Askul to erase most of the goodwill it booked buying office-supply group AP67 back in 2023.
TSI Holdings' quarterly sales rose 30% and operating profit rose 66% on the back of two acquisitions, but Freak's Store operator Daytona International and umbrella maker Waterfront pulled gross margin down 1.2 points, a trade-off the apparel group is covering with sharper cost cuts rather than pricing power.
Camera sales jumped 20% and duty-free revenue hit a nine-month record as Bic Camera's operating profit rose 35.8% to ¥33.3bn for the nine months to May, even as television sales kept sliding.
QPS Holdings booked an ¥833mn operating loss for the year to May 2026, kept net income positive with subsidy income, and is guiding to a ¥300mn operating profit next year once a ¥69.7bn, five-year Ministry of Defense satellite contract lands its first full year of revenue.
The Tokyo-listed accounting-software group turned a ¥2.2bn net loss into a ¥553.7mn profit for the six months to May, then used the report to lift its full-year revenue and profit targets for a second time.
