Kitagawa Seiki Co., Ltd. ( (JP:6327) ) has provided an update.

Kitagawa Seiki Co., Ltd. reported strong results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending June 2026, with net sales rising 12.7% year on year to ¥4,155 million and operating profit jumping 53.9% to ¥682 million. Ordinary profit surged 78.9% to ¥751 million, while profit attributable to owners of the parent climbed 80.6% to ¥522 million, lifting basic earnings per share to ¥64.09 and underscoring a notable recovery from the prior-year downturn.

The company’s total assets increased to ¥10,291 million and net assets to ¥5,653 million, though its capital adequacy ratio eased to 54.9% from 59.1%, suggesting growth has been accompanied by a higher asset base and potentially greater leverage. Despite the earnings rebound, Kitagawa Seiki maintained a zero dividend per share for the second quarter, indicating a conservative capital policy that may prioritize internal investment and balance sheet strengthening over immediate shareholder payouts.
