ANEST IWATA Corp. ( (JP:6381) ) has issued an announcement.
ANEST IWATA reported consolidated net sales of ¥39.49 billion for the third quarter of FY2025, down 1.3% year on year, with operating profit falling 18.1% to ¥3.80 billion as lower sales and higher selling and administrative expenses weighed on earnings. The air energy and coating segments both saw declines in revenue and profit despite signs of recovery in Chinese air compressors and spray gun demand, while other businesses grew via e-commerce but remained loss-making due to upfront investment; even so, the company kept its full-year earnings and dividend forecasts unchanged, signaling a focus on recovery through sales promotion measures.
Ordinary profit and net income also declined, despite positive contributions from foreign exchange gains and equity in earnings of affiliates, underscoring pressure on the core business. The decision to maintain guidance and dividends, coupled with continued investment in new businesses, suggests ANEST IWATA is prioritizing medium-term growth and market positioning over short-term margin protection, a stance that will be closely watched by shareholders exposed to cyclical demand in industrial equipment and coatings markets.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:6381) stock is a Buy with a Yen1936.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on ANEST IWATA Corp. stock, see the JP:6381 Stock Forecast page.
