Sakata Seed Corporation ( (JP:1377) ) has issued an update.

Sakata Seed Corporation reported that its consolidated results for the six months ended November 30, 2025 significantly outperformed prior forecasts, driven by stronger-than-expected sales of vegetable and flower seeds and the benefit of a weaker yen. Net sales were 4.9% above guidance, while operating profit and profit attributable to owners of parent exceeded forecasts by 37.9% and 55.4%, respectively, aided by improved gross margins, better foreign exchange gains and a higher gain on sales of investment securities. Reflecting this strong interim performance and updated assumptions for a weaker yen against the US dollar, euro, Brazilian real and Asian currencies, the company raised its full-year fiscal 2026 forecasts, now projecting higher net sales, operating profit, ordinary profit and profit attributable to owners of parent than previously expected, signaling improved earnings prospects for shareholders.
