Dear Life Swings to Quarterly Loss but Upholds Ambitious Full-Year Targets

Dear Life Co., Ltd. ( (JP:3245) ) has provided an update.

Dear Life Co., Ltd. reported a sharp downturn in results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, with net sales plunging 77.8% year on year to ¥2.54 billion and swinging to operating, ordinary, and net losses, including a loss attributable to owners of the parent of ¥425 million, versus a ¥682 million profit a year earlier. Despite the weak start and a decline in its capital-to-assets ratio to 55.4%, total assets and equity both increased compared with the previous fiscal year-end, and the company maintained its full-year performance targets of ¥10 billion in ordinary profit and ¥6.8 billion in profit attributable to owners, while holding its dividend policy with a projected slight year-on-year increase in the total annual dividend, underscoring management’s intention to treat these figures as management goals amid uncertainty in real estate transaction volumes.
