The latest announcement is out from ENEOS Holdings ( (JP:5020) ).

ENEOS Holdings reported fiscal 2025 consolidated results that significantly outpaced its earlier forecast, with revenue of ¥11.77 trillion and operating profit of ¥466.6 billion, both above expectations. Profit attributable to owners of the parent rose to ¥258.7 billion, driving basic earnings per share to ¥96.18, sharply higher than the company’s prior guidance.

The upside came mainly from a much smaller inventory valuation loss than anticipated, after crude oil prices surged in March amid escalating tensions in the Middle East. Instead of the roughly ¥130 billion loss previously assumed, inventory valuation effects totaled only ¥7.8 billion, underpinning a substantial outperformance in operating profit and strengthening ENEOS’s earnings profile despite slightly lower revenue than the prior year.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:5020) stock is a Buy with a Yen1770.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on ENEOS Holdings stock, see the JP:5020 Stock Forecast page.
