Q1 2026 earnings summary31 Jul, 2025

Executive summary

  • Q1 FY2026 revenue was ¥364.7 billion, down 1.4% year-over-year, but core earnings and EBITDA rose sharply, driven by strong renovation demand, product mix, and margin improvements, especially in Europe, the Middle East, and Japan.

  • Operating profit improved to ¥6.8 billion from a loss of ¥0.5 billion in the prior year; net loss narrowed to ¥0.5 billion from ¥5.8 billion, reflecting improved profitability and foreign exchange gains.

  • Structural reforms, including withdrawal from the ceramic siding business and reorganization in Europe, are largely complete, reducing future restructuring costs.

  • Despite global housing market challenges, profit margins improved due to high value-added products, price optimization, and strong renovation demand.

  • Comprehensive income attributable to owners was ¥9.7 billion, up from ¥20.6 billion last year.

Financial highlights

  • Gross profit increased to ¥124.8 billion from ¥117.4 billion year-over-year, with gross margin up 2.5pp to 34.2%.

  • Operating profit reached ¥6.8 billion, reversing a loss of ¥0.5 billion in the prior year.

  • Basic and diluted loss per share improved to ¥-3.17 from ¥-20.39 year-over-year.

Outlook and guidance

  • No change to the full-year forecast despite Q1 outperformance and ongoing market uncertainties, especially in the U.S. and China.

  • FY2026 revenue forecast is ¥1,540 billion, up 2.3% year-over-year; core earnings projected at ¥35.0 billion, operating profit at ¥30.0 billion, and net profit at ¥8.0 billion.

  • Full demand recovery in Europe expected from next fiscal year; U.S. and China remain uncertain due to tariffs, interest rates, and housing market conditions.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
