Meidensha Corporation ( (JP:6508) ) has issued an announcement.
Meidensha Corporation will book significant extraordinary losses in its fiscal year ending March 2026, triggered by deteriorating profitability at its Chinese subsidiary MEIDEN(HANGZHOU)DRIVE TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., which was established in 2019 as an electric vehicle drive unit hub. The company will record a ¥3,303 million impairment loss on the subsidiary’s fixed assets on a consolidated basis, alongside non-consolidated appraisal, doubtful account, and guarantee-related losses that are largely neutralized in consolidated results.
On a non-consolidated basis, Meidensha will recognize an appraisal loss of ¥4,249 million on shares in the Hangzhou affiliate, as well as an allowance for doubtful accounts of ¥1,690 million and a provision for loss on guarantees of ¥1,984 million tied to loans and guarantees extended to the unit. While these items highlight the challenges in its China EV drive operations and underscore asset quality and credit risk concerns at the parent level, the company emphasizes that most of the non-consolidated charges will not affect consolidated earnings, tempering the broader impact for shareholders and creditors.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:6508) stock is a Sell with a Yen5900.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Meidensha Corporation stock, see the JP:6508 Stock Forecast page.
