東宝 released its second-quarter results and revised its full-year forecast, but the upward revision to net income was based solely on gains from the sale of investment securities and fell short of market expectations. The share price fell back.
東宝 released its second-quarter results the previous day and revised its full-year earnings forecast. Immediately after the announcement, concern prevailed that the upward revision was limited to an increase in net income resulting from gains on the sale of investment securities.
The improvement in net income under the revision was limited, with the positive contribution from gains on the sale of investment securities accounting for most of it. This led to a growing view that the results would fall short of market expectations.
After the news was distributed, 東宝’s share price fell back. The current price was ¥1,529.5, down ¥33 from the previous day.
