Nippon Coke & Engineering Company, Limited ( (JP:3315) ) has issued an update.

Nippon Coke & Engineering has withdrawn its previously announced full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, after a fire on a coal conveyor belt at its Kitakyushu Coking Works in January disrupted operations. While part of the damaged facility has been restored and the 1A coke oven batteries resumed operation on January 7, 2026, management says it is still assessing the financial impact of the incident and cannot reasonably estimate full-year performance, leaving its guidance temporarily designated as “undetermined” until visibility improves.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:3315) stock is a Sell with a Yen102.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Nippon Coke & Engineering Company, Limited stock, see the JP:3315 Stock Forecast page.
