Komori ( (JP:6349) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Komori Corporation revised its full-year consolidated forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, projecting lower net sales but higher profits than previously expected. The company now expects net sales of ¥118.4 billion, down 4.9% from the prior forecast, while operating profit is seen rising 4.4% to ¥9.5 billion and ordinary profit jumping 22.5% to ¥10.9 billion, lifting profit attributable to owners of the parent by 14.1% to ¥7.3 billion.

Management cited U.S. import tariff disruptions as a drag on revenue, partially offsetting the positive impact of a weaker yen on sales. Profitability is being buoyed by a richer product mix with more high-margin printing machines, steady performance in parts and services, and improved cost ratios helped by currency moves, positioning Komori to surpass last year’s operating and ordinary profit despite softer top-line growth.
