Seihyo Co. Swings to Quarterly Loss as Costs Outpace Revenue Growth

Revenue for the three-month period reached 1.46 billion yen, an increase from the 1.34 billion yen reported in 2025. However, this growth failed to offset rising expenses, pushing the company into an operating loss of 19 million yen, compared to an operating profit of 47 million yen in the previous year. Pretax profit followed a similar trajectory, sliding to a loss of 20 million yen from a year-earlier profit of 57 million yen.

Earnings per share dropped to a loss of 27.71 yen, contrasting with the 27.59 yen profit per share seen in the same quarter of the prior fiscal year. The company maintains its year-end dividend forecast at 18 yen per share. These results, prepared under Japanese accounting standards, highlight the mounting pressure on the company's margins as it navigates the current fiscal cycle.
