The latest announcement is out from Hard Off Corporation Co., Ltd. ( (JP:2674) ).
Hard Off Corporation reported that consolidated net sales for the third quarter of FY2026/3 rose 13.7% year on year to a record ¥28.2 billion, driven by 24 store openings last year, 22 new stores this year, and the consolidation of 69 ECONOS stores, with domestic existing-store sales up 3.6%. Despite higher personnel, depreciation and store-opening costs, and a one-off TOB expense for ECONOS that pushed operating and ordinary profit slightly lower, quarterly profit attributable to owners of parent increased 2.8% to a record level, supported by a gain on step acquisition.
The company left its full-year FY2026/3 forecast unchanged, expecting net sales to climb 7.4% to a 30th consecutive record and all profit lines to reach record highs for a fourth straight year, underpinned by higher sales from its expanding store base. Hard Off plans to maintain an annual dividend of ¥78 per share, targeting a stable dividend on equity of around 6%, while its total secondhand store network grew to 1,078 outlets as directly operated stores increased, franchise stores were partially internalized through ECONOS, and international locations continued to expand, reinforcing its scale and presence in the reuse retail market.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:2674) stock is a Buy with a Yen2359.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Hard Off Corporation Co., Ltd. stock, see the JP:2674 Stock Forecast page.
