An announcement from M&A Research Institute Holdings Inc. ( (JP:9552) ) is now available.
Quants Research Institute Holdings reported revenue of ¥4.67 billion for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, up 11.8% year on year, but operating profit dropped 31.2% to ¥1.14 billion as quarterly profit attributable to owners fell 35.7% to ¥688 million, reflecting margin pressure despite top-line growth. Total assets rose sharply to ¥14.25 billion from ¥8.12 billion, while the equity ratio declined from 62.8% to 38.8%, and the company maintained its full-year forecast for strong double-digit growth in revenue and profit, signaling confidence in its outlook even as it projects no dividends for the current fiscal year.
The company plans full-year revenue of ¥22.18 billion, a 33.6% increase, and profit attributable to owners of ¥3.53 billion, up 28.6%, implying a recovery in profitability over the remainder of the fiscal year. The decision to forecast zero dividends, after paying ¥5 per share in the prior year, suggests a strategic emphasis on retaining capital to support expansion or balance sheet needs, which may affect income-focused shareholders but could underpin longer-term growth and competitiveness in its niche financial research market.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:9552) stock is a Hold with a Yen1366.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on M&A Research Institute Holdings Inc. stock, see the JP:9552 Stock Forecast page.
