The latest update is out from Yamaha ( (JP:7951) ).
Yamaha reported a modest 0.7% rise in annual revenue to ¥465.3 billion for the year ended March 31, 2026, driven by stronger guitar and digital instrument sales that offset weaker piano demand in China and a normalization of professional audio orders. Core operating profit fell 13.2% to ¥31.9 billion due to U.S. tariffs, higher procurement costs, and product mix shifts, but profit attributable to owners surged 77.7% to ¥23.7 billion, largely reflecting the absence of prior-year restructuring charges tied to piano facility impairments and the wind-down of its golf products business.
By segment, musical instruments achieved 3.0% revenue growth to ¥304.9 billion despite a slight drop in core operating profit, supported by robust sales of digital pianos, wind instruments, and guitars, especially in North America, Japan, and Europe. Audio equipment revenue declined 3.6% to ¥142.4 billion with a 25.0% slide in core operating profit as consumer home audio and professional audio demand eased, while the smaller Others segment slipped into a minor loss amid shrinking golf product sales; looking ahead to fiscal 2027, Yamaha is guiding for a return to a growth trajectory with revenue of ¥490.0 billion and double-digit increases in both core operating profit and profit attributable to owners, assuming stable yet weaker yen exchange rates.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:7951) stock is a Hold with a Yen1100.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Yamaha stock, see the JP:7951 Stock Forecast page.
