Shunki Nakamura’s rating is based on a combination of factors that reflect both current performance and future expectations for Bandai Namco Holdings. Despite a slightly negative first impression due to the fourth-quarter operating profit missing market expectations, Nakamura maintains a positive outlook on the company. The fiscal year 2026 operating profit guidance, although showing a 20% year-over-year decline, aligns with the company’s history of providing conservative forecasts, which did not come as a surprise to the analyst.
Furthermore, Nakamura’s price target for Bandai Namco is set at ¥6,060, based on an estimated earnings per share of ¥242 for the fiscal year ending March 2027, with a price-to-earnings ratio of 25x. This valuation reflects confidence in the company’s long-term potential, prompting a reiteration of the Buy rating. The analyst’s perspective suggests that despite short-term challenges, Bandai Namco holds promising prospects for growth and value creation.
According to TipRanks, Nakamura is ranked #4174 out of 9472 analysts.
