The latest update is out from RaQualia Pharma Inc. ( (JP:4579) ).

RaQualia Pharma reported a sharp turnaround to profitability for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, with net sales rising 28.1% to ¥3.98 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent reaching ¥273 million, compared with a loss a year earlier. The company’s operating margin improved to 12.2%, equity ratio climbed to 65.1%, and cash and cash equivalents increased slightly to ¥3.24 billion despite negative operating cash flow.

Management has maintained a no-dividend policy for 2025 and continues to forecast zero dividends for 2026, underscoring a focus on reinvestment and capital preservation. For 2026, RaQualia expects flat sales of about ¥3.98 billion but a steep drop in earnings, guiding to an ordinary profit of ¥86 million and a net loss of ¥63 million, which signals anticipated higher costs or investment that may pressure short-term profitability while potentially supporting longer-term growth.
