S Foods Inc. ( (JP:2292) ) has shared an update.

S Foods Inc. revised its full-year consolidated forecast for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, lowering projected net sales from ¥475.0 billion to ¥468.0 billion but significantly raising profit estimates, with operating profit now expected at ¥8.8 billion, ordinary profit at ¥10.0 billion, and profit attributable to owners of parent at ¥8.0 billion, implying a sharp increase in earnings per share. The company attributed the reduced sales outlook to the delayed start of operations at its new Aurora plant in the United States, now expected to commence in April 2026, while the substantial upward revision in profit reflects strong performance in its domestic business and the recording of gains on the sale of fixed assets and investment securities as extraordinary income, signaling improved profitability despite a modest top-line shortfall.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:2292) stock is a Hold with a Yen2622.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on S Foods Inc. stock, see the JP:2292 Stock Forecast page.
