Tayca Slashes Full-Year Profit Forecast on Cost Surge and Weak Functional Materials Demand

Tayca Corporation ( (JP:4027) ) has issued an update.

Tayca Corporation has sharply downgraded its full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, citing rising costs from persistently high raw material and fuel prices driven by geopolitical risks, along with sluggish sales in its functional materials business, particularly micro particle products for cosmetics. The company now projects net sales of ¥58.0 billion, down from the previous ¥59.0 billion forecast, and expects operating profit to fall by nearly half to ¥1.7 billion, ordinary profit to ¥2.1 billion, and profit attributable to owners of parent to ¥1.3 billion, implying earnings per share of ¥56.09; all major profit metrics are now forecast to undershoot both the prior guidance and, in some cases, the previous fiscal year’s results, signaling margin pressure and weaker profitability that could weigh on investor sentiment and highlight ongoing cost and demand challenges in its core materials businesses.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:4027) stock is a Buy with a Yen1537.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Tayca Corporation stock, see the JP:4027 Stock Forecast page.
