After the market close on 16 October, 昭和真空 announced an earnings revision, revising its ordinary income forecast for the cumulative second quarter (April–September) of the fiscal year ending March 2027 downward from a profit of ¥70 million to a loss of ¥190 million. The company had posted a profit in the same period of the previous year, but is now expected to report a loss. Attention will remain focused on its outlook for the time being. The full-year ordinary profit forecast was left unchanged at ¥820 million, compared with ¥1.17 billion in the previous fiscal year.
The company attributed the downward revision for the current fiscal year to the deterioration in first-half results. The revision was based on first-half calculations, with no change to the full-year forecast, and there was no major change from the outlook provided at the beginning of the fiscal year.
