ARCLANDS CORPORATION ( (JP:9842) ) just unveiled an update.

For the nine months ended November 30, 2025, ARCLANDS CORPORATION reported a 7.7% year-on-year increase in consolidated net sales to ¥256.2 billion, but operating profit fell 8.7% and ordinary profit and profit attributable to owners of parent both declined 27.4%, indicating margin pressure despite top-line growth. Total assets and net assets rose modestly, and the company maintained its dividend policy with an interim payment of ¥20 per share and a full-year forecast of ¥40 per share unchanged, even as it revised its full-year earnings outlook downward, now projecting higher net sales but double-digit percentage declines in operating profit, ordinary profit, and net income compared with the prior year, signaling a more challenging profit environment for shareholders and other stakeholders.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:9842) stock is a Buy with a Yen2106.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on ARCLANDS CORPORATION stock, see the JP:9842 Stock Forecast page.
