Keyence stock trades at EUR 459.00 ahead of quarterly results
Published on 10/06/2026 at 09:40 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSKeyence stock was trading at EUR 459.00 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 9:34 a.m. CEST, up 0.43 percent from the prior close of EUR 457.05. Keyence has scheduled its second-quarter fiscal 2027 financial results for October 29, 2026.
Revenue growth sets the benchmark
For the first quarter of fiscal 2027 ended June 20, 2026, sales reached JPY 346.62 billion, compared with JPY 261.08 billion in the same period a year earlier. That represents a 32.77 percent increase, according to JPX Market Explorer.
Net income rose to JPY 139.13 billion from JPY 92.12 billion, a 51.05 percent year-over-year increase. Basic earnings per share reached JPY 573.69, versus JPY 379.82 in the comparable period, the same source reported.
Analyst target moves higher
The upcoming report matters because the latest growth figures have raised the bar for the second quarter. Keyence sells sensors, machine-vision systems and measurement equipment used in automated production, so sales growth links directly to factory investment and overseas demand.
On its Keyence market page, Investing.com lists a Citi Buy rating dated September 7, 2026, with a target of JPY 95,000, raised from JPY 87,500. The increase is 8.57 percent, while the page also lists Macquarie at JPY 85,000 and CLSA at JPY 90,000.
Tokyo valuation stays elevated
Keyence was last quoted at JPY 81,490 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 6, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. JST. The same-day 52-week range was JPY 51,510 to JPY 87,920, placing the Japanese listing 7.31 percent below its high, while market capitalization stood at JPY 19.8 trillion.
The euro quote gives German investors a separate trading reference from the Tokyo listing. Its modest 0.43 percent daily gain leaves the October 29 results date and the sustainability of the first-quarter profit acceleration as the next measurable company-specific checkpoints.
Results date sets the next checkpoint
Keyence combines a 32.77 percent sales increase with a 51.05 percent net-income increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2027. The October 29 report will show whether that gap remains visible in the second quarter.
