Riso Kyoiku Posts Higher Sales but Lower Profits, Beats Revised Forecasts

An announcement from Riso Kyoiku Co., Ltd. ( (JP:4714) ) is now available.

Riso Kyoiku Group Corporation reported that net sales for the fiscal year ended February 2026 rose 2.5% year on year to ¥34.24 billion, but fell short of its initial plan due to weaker-than-expected student enrollment at the start of the year. Although enrollment recovered in the second half, profits declined versus the prior year as increased fixed costs outweighed improved advertising efficiency from its transition to a holding company structure.

Despite the year-on-year profit decline, both sales and profits surpassed the company’s revised forecasts announced in January, indicating better-than-anticipated performance in the latter part of the year. Management plans to further centralize overlapping functions, advance digital transformation to streamline administrative work, and enhance service quality at group companies, aiming to boost enrollment and retention and support sustainable growth for stakeholders over the longer term.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:4714) stock is a Buy with a Yen246.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Riso Kyoiku Co., Ltd. stock, see the JP:4714 Stock Forecast page.
