SFP Holdings Co.Ltd. ( (JP:3198) ) has provided an announcement.
SFP Holdings reported that its full-year results for the fiscal year ending February 2026 fell short of prior forecasts, with net sales, operating profit, ordinary profit, and profit attributable to owners all below the levels projected in April 2025. While consolidated sales still rose 2.4% year on year thanks to new store openings, weaker-than-expected customer traffic at existing ISOMARU SUISAN outlets and a higher cost of sales ratio due to inflationary pressures eroded profitability.
The company’s net income was further depressed by impairment losses on certain underperforming stores, following a change in accounting auditor and a more conservative approach to assessing recoverability of fixed assets. These factors combined to push earnings per share down sharply compared with both the forecast and the previous fiscal year, signaling margin pressures and more stringent asset valuation that may weigh on returns to shareholders in the near term.
