Meiwa Corporation ( (JP:8103) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Meiwa Corporation reported a decline in non-consolidated earnings for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, with net sales slipping 4.8% to ¥96.3 billion and operating income down 10.7% to ¥2.1 billion. Ordinary income fell 41.3% to ¥2.9 billion and net income dropped 33.6% to ¥2.7 billion compared with the prior year.

The company said operating income weakened because selling, general and administrative expenses increased even though sales stayed broadly in line with the previous year. Ordinary and net income were further pressured by lower dividend income from subsidiaries, and net profit still declined despite an uptick in extraordinary income from the partial sale of strategically held shares, highlighting margin and income-structure challenges.
