Kureha stock (ISIN JP3271600003) was last at JPY 3,955 on October 6, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. JST, up 0.64 percent on the session. The company had already delivered a measurable operating signal in Q1 FY27, with revenue above the period's estimate.
Q1 revenue beats the estimate
According to Investing.com, Kureha reported Q1 FY27 revenue of JPY 42.1 billion for the period ended June 2026, compared with a JPY 41.3 billion estimate. The 1.94 percent revenue beat gives the October share price a concrete operating reference rather than leaving the valuation dependent on market sentiment alone.
The same earnings record shows Q1 FY27 earnings of JPY 4.29 billion and earnings per share of JPY 112.24. Those figures provide a stronger near-term baseline than the trailing twelve-month net loss of JPY 8.46 billion shown on the company overview page.
Analysts keep a neutral view
Zonebourse lists a Neutral consensus from four analysts, with an average target of JPY 3,952, a low target of JPY 2,900 and a high target of JPY 5,660. Its reference quote of JPY 4,160 is older than the October 6 market value, so the consensus figures are best read as a range of analyst expectations rather than a direct forecast of the latest price.
The target dispersion is wide: the high target stands JPY 2,760 above the low target. That spread matters for Kureha because the company combines advanced materials and specialty chemicals with specialty plastics, construction and other operations, giving analysts several earnings drivers to weigh.
Stock remains below its yearly high
Kureha's October 6 price of JPY 3,955 sits 19.37 percent below the 52-week high of JPY 4,905 and above the 52-week low of JPY 3,510. The session range was JPY 3,895 to JPY 3,970, while volume reached 202,500 shares.
Market capitalization stood at JPY 151.2 billion on October 6, 2026. Yahoo Finance describes Kureha as a Tokyo-based producer of functional materials, specialty chemicals and plastics, with fiscal year-end on March 31.
Next report date is November 11
Investing.com lists November 11, 2026 as Kureha's next reporting date. Until then, the key comparison remains the gap between the JPY 42.1 billion Q1 revenue result and the JPY 41.3 billion estimate.
