鳥越製粉's consolidated results for January–September 2026 showed net profit up 8% at ¥876 million. Sales were ¥19.4 billion, below the previous year, while shipments of commercial-use wheat declined.
The company sought to secure profit by passing higher material and energy costs through to selling prices. Sales edged down partly because of the impact of lower prices for wheat products.
In its outlook for the fiscal year ending December 2026, only sales were revised downward, to ¥26.5 billion, up 1% from the previous year and ¥1.5 billion below the previous forecast. The factors cited were the October 2025 reduction in the government's selling price for imported wheat and the reduction in prices for commercial-use wheat flour delivered from January 2026.
The previous forecasts for operating profit of ¥1.3 billion, up 3%, and net profit of ¥1.1 billion, down 1%, were left unchanged.
Overall, the results indicate that passing higher material and energy costs through to prices contributed to profit, while downward pressure on sales continued.
