TAKEUCHI MFG.CO.,LTD.

TAKEUCHI MFG.CO.,LTD. is primarily engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of construction equipment. Under its Fourth Medium-Term Management Plan (for the fiscal years ending February 2026 through February 2028), the company has adopted “Building Excellence” as its slogan and is pursuing the expansion of its sales network, growth in aftermarket parts sales, reorganization of production models, construction of a new crawler loader plant, expansion of its battery-powered mini excavator lineup, investment in human capital and sustainability management as key initiatives. During the interim consolidated accounting period, the company launched the TB3150 and TB3150R hydraulic excavators in April 2026 and the TL11R3 crawler loader in July 2026, and actively promoted their sales. On the development front, it began joint research aimed at the practical application of autonomous operation for construction equipment and opened the Hachioji Development Center to promote the development of next-generation technologies. Sales in North America and Europe exceeded the level of the same period of the previous year, while unit sales in Asia and Oceania declined year on year due to the closure of a former distributor’s business and other factors. Orders received totaled ¥145.983 billion, up 48.1% year on year, and the order backlog was ¥57.167 billion. The company had disclosed orders received and the order backlog quarterly, but suspended these disclosures through the fiscal year ending February 2027 because quarterly fluctuations had become substantial due to the nature of the business. Revenue rose 16.0% year on year to ¥132.383 billion. Key factors reducing earnings included a ¥1.728 billion negative impact from U.S. tariffs, comprising a ¥7.684 billion increase in tariff costs, ¥3.331 billion in price pass-through and ¥2.625 billion in tariff refunds, as well as higher promotional and transportation expenses associated with surging crude oil prices. However, supported by higher revenue, operating profit rose 3.4% to ¥24.198 billion, ordinary profit rose 6.0% to ¥25.122 billion, and interim net profit attributable to owners of the parent rose 6.3% to ¥18.129 billion.
