An update from Nihon Nohyaku Co., Ltd. ( (JP:4997) ) is now available.

Nihon Nohyaku has approved a settlement between its 50%-owned Brazilian consolidated subsidiary, Sipcam Nichino Brasil S.A., and FMC Química do Brasil Ltda. over a damages claim stemming from a 2023 armed robbery in which products being packaged for FMC were stolen. The settlement, for USD 7.2 million (about 39.6 million reals or 1.116 billion yen), replaces an earlier court order for SNB to pay 45 million reals plus interest and costs, and will be finalized upon approval by the São Paulo State Court of Appeals; the company will book the full amount as an extraordinary loss in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, though the impact on profit attributable to owners of parent will be limited to roughly half that figure due to its 50% stake in SNB, and it is maintaining its current earnings forecast for the year.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:4997) stock is a Hold with a Yen1090.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Nihon Nohyaku Co., Ltd. stock, see the JP:4997 Stock Forecast page.
