THK Swings to Deep Loss as Automotive Business Exit Drives Gap With Forecasts

THK Co ( (JP:6481) ) just unveiled an announcement.

THK Co., Ltd. reported significant deviations between its earlier forecasts and actual results for the year ended December 31, 2025, largely due to the reclassification and liquidation of its automotive and transportation business. While revenue, operating income, and profit before tax from continuing operations were below consolidated forecasts, the company booked a large consolidated net loss attributable to owners of the parent, driven by an ¥81.6 billion loss on business liquidation tied to the discontinued segment.

On a non-consolidated basis, THK’s revenue and operating income slightly exceeded expectations, helped by a weaker-than-anticipated yen and higher dividends from subsidiaries, and ordinary income also came in above forecast. However, non-consolidated net results swung sharply into loss after the company recorded sizeable charges for impairment of investments in affiliates and provisions for business liquidation related to the automotive and transportation unit, underscoring the financial impact of the strategic exit on shareholders and future earnings profiles.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:6481) stock is a Hold with a Yen5270.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on THK Co stock, see the JP:6481 Stock Forecast page.
