Yamaha ( (JP:7951) ) has shared an update.

Third-quarter FY2026.3 revenue fell 2.8% to ¥341.0 billion and core operating profit dropped 21.3% to ¥25.1 billion amid weak Chinese piano demand, softer professional audio sales, and yen appreciation, though net income improved as last year’s impairment charges did not recur. Segment pressures were offset by resilient sales of digital instruments, mid- to high-end winds, and acoustic guitars, prompting Yamaha to raise its full-year revenue outlook to ¥462.0 billion and profit attributable forecast to ¥24.0 billion, citing strength in North America and Europe plus favorable FX despite ongoing audio and piano headwinds and planned golf business exit costs.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:7951) stock is a Buy with a Yen1198.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Yamaha stock, see the JP:7951 Stock Forecast page.
