Results, forecasts and guidance revisions from Japan's listed companies, in English.
Revenue slipped to ¥11.77tn, but operating profit recovered to ¥466.6bn and parent profit rose to ¥258.7bn, while equity attributable to owners reached ¥3.37tn. Lower top line, stronger profit and equity: not elegant, but effective.
Sales rose to ¥29.69bn, ordinary income to ¥2.77bn and parent profit to ¥1.99bn, and shareholders approved an ¥85-a-share dividend effective June 24. Clean manufacturing snapshot, no grand theory required.
Sales reached ¥37.66bn, ordinary income ¥3.97bn and parent profit ¥2.49bn. As private-education signals go, this one still points upward.
The group reported ¥23.83bn of sales, ¥6.35bn of ordinary income and ¥3.97bn of parent profit, while its wholly owned consulting arm became a specified subsidiary after its net assets crossed 30% of the parent's. Disclosure threshold, not a new acquisition.
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.
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.
Toyo Gosei reported sales of ¥41.96bn for the year to March 2026, up from ¥38.67bn, but ordinary income slipped to ¥3.59bn from ¥4.00bn and net income fell to ¥2.69bn from ¥3.28bn. The annual dividend was cut to ¥40 from ¥45, even as the equity-to-asset ratio improved to 41.0% from 37.7%, leaving a familiar mixed message: sturdier balance sheet, thinner earnings.
Cyberdyne's revenue fell to ¥3.85bn from ¥4.38bn in the year to March 2026, yet it cut its operating loss to ¥601mn from ¥926mn and returned to ¥153mn of profit attributable to owners. That is progress, but still the sort that asks readers to keep one eye on the red operating line.
Sanrio reported revenue of ¥194.1bn for the year to March 2026, up 33.9%, while operating profit jumped 50.3% to ¥77.9bn and net profit attributable to owners rose 30.9% to ¥54.6bn. The company said all three were record highs, and net assets climbed to ¥156.0bn from ¥107.6bn. The board also approved a year-end dividend of ¥38 a share for March 31 holders, taking the full-year payout to ¥69 from ¥53 on a pre-split basis. One wrinkle worth keeping straight: Sanrio's 5-for-1 stock split took effect on April 1, so the current-year dividend forecast of ¥16 a share is shown on a post-split basis rather than on the same unit as last year's figure.
Subaru's annual report shows revenue rising to ¥4.78tn in the year to March 2026 from ¥4.69tn a year earlier, even as profit before tax fell to ¥107.47bn from ¥448.51bn and profit attributable to owners of parent dropped to ¥90.84bn from ¥338.06bn. Basic earnings per share fell to 125.50 yen from 458.03 yen, making this a profit-protection problem rather than a scale problem.
The annual report shows a ¥783mn loss attributable to owners after a ¥89mn profit a year earlier, as sales slipped to ¥65.85bn from ¥69.75bn. The sharper deterioration is in earnings rather than pure scale.
Sales rose to ¥355.6bn from ¥345.0bn and ordinary income to ¥22.6bn from ¥21.3bn, while net assets reached ¥163.3bn. A same-day control report said management judged financial-reporting controls effective at year-end.
The company posted ¥98.8mn in net income attributable to owners after a ¥134.3mn loss a year earlier, while sales barely moved at ¥2.47bn from ¥2.46bn. That makes the filing a profitability-repair story more than a revenue breakout.
Its annual report puts revenue at ¥300.09bn and business profit at ¥12.53bn for the year to March 2026, up from ¥269.16bn and ¥9.31bn a year earlier. The formal filing makes clear this is now a much larger restaurant operator than it was even a few years ago.
First-quarter sales rose 2.5% to ¥27.8bn, helped by electric-assist bicycles and repair demand, while operating profit fell 5.3% to ¥3.1bn. Management left its full-year sales target at ¥86.3bn and operating profit target at ¥4.3bn unchanged.
Sales fell to ¥41.07bn from ¥43.13bn, but ordinary income rose to ¥10.82bn from ¥9.68bn and net assets stood at ¥91.27bn. The balance sheet still looks notably thick.
Net sales rose to ¥334.61bn from ¥302.68bn, but ordinary income slipped to ¥10.03bn from ¥10.86bn and profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥6.84bn. A same-day control report said financial-reporting controls were effective.
Ordinary income rose to ¥18.05bn from ¥14.86bn and ordinary profit to ¥2.59bn from ¥1.89bn, with total assets at ¥832.27bn. A separate control report said financial-reporting controls were effective at year-end.
Komehyo's May sales in brand fashion reached ¥21.545bn after ¥21.409bn in April, while individual purchases stayed above the ¥10bn line for a second straight month at ¥10.191bn. The tax-free sales ratio eased to 17.3% from 17.9% in April even as the retail mix rose to 45.8%, which suggests the month's strength was not just tourists doing the heavy lifting.
Aisan Technology reported revenue up 22.1% to ¥7.59bn and operating profit up 69.2% to ¥760mn for the year to March 2026, with net profit rising 82.4% to ¥522mn and the year-end dividend set at ¥37 a share. But the results arrived after the company missed the 50-day disclosure window because of a special investigation into suspected improper transactions at a wholly owned subsidiary. Aisan said the committee found fictitious sales, concealed below-cost sales and diverted auction proceeds, with a cumulative ¥49mn hit to consolidated operating profit. The company has suspended the used-equipment operation at the unit's marketing centre until new controls are in place and says it aims to get back inside the normal reporting timetable.
Cosel's sales fell 7.4% to ¥25.05bn in the year to May 2026 and operating profit swung to a ¥695mn loss from a ¥628mn profit. Net loss widened to ¥3.41bn after a ¥3.633bn loss tied to the disposal of Powerbox International AB, yet the company held the annual dividend at ¥55 a share. Management is guiding for a rebound to ¥28.875bn of sales, ¥1.335bn of operating profit and ¥1.604bn of net profit in the current year, and says it intends to lift the dividend to ¥60. That is a recovery plan, not a receipt.
The company raised net income guidance for the year ending December 2026 to ¥155mn from ¥104mn after saying it expects ¥76mn of extraordinary gains tied to a Tokyo High Court ruling. Revenue and operating-loss guidance were unchanged.
Japan's 21 major life insurers lifted premium income to ¥38.94tn and net income to ¥2.54tn in the year ended March 2026, with the FSA saying higher domestic rates boosted sales of single-premium yen-denominated policies. Base profit rose to ¥4.67tn even as capital gains and losses deteriorated to a ¥2.07tn loss. The three big non-life groups also benefited from a lighter catastrophe bill. Revenue rose to ¥6.53tn at Tokio Marine, ¥5.76tn at MS&AD and ¥5.37tn at SOMPO, though Tokio Marine's net income still slipped to ¥980.4bn. Think sector check-up, not neat league table.
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.
