Daikin stock was trading at EUR 15.14 at Lang & Schwarz on October 1, 2026 at 8:05 a.m. CEST, down 0.59 percent versus the prior close of EUR 15.23. On the Tokyo Stock Exchange, the share was last at JPY 21,040 on October 1, 2026 at 2:51 p.m. JST, 20.42 percent below its JPY 26,440 52-week high. Daikin Industries announced the release of its Integrated Report 2026 on September 28, 2026.
Report targets capital efficiency
According to Daikin on September 28, 2026, the report sets out the group's strategy under the FUSION30 plan and details initiatives to improve profitability and capital efficiency. The release also links the strategy to long-term business growth and sustainability priorities.
That framing matters because the latest operating figures show growth reaching the income statement unevenly. The report's emphasis on profitability therefore sits alongside a clear margin question for the next results update.
Revenue outruns operating profit
For the first quarter of fiscal 2027, Daikin reported revenue of JPY 1.43 trillion, up 17.50 percent from the prior-year quarter, while operating profit rose 7.60 percent to JPY 130.56 billion, according to Smart Stock Notes. Net income was JPY 80.14 billion in the same period, a 1.70 percent decline from the prior-year quarter.
The comparison points to a narrower profit conversion than the sales growth alone suggests. Operating margin was 9.20 percent, down from 10.00 percent in the first quarter of the previous fiscal year, making cost control and pricing the key operating variables.
Stock stays below its yearly high
Daikin's market capitalization was JPY 5.9 trillion as of October 1, 2026. The Tokyo Stock Exchange quote remained within a JPY 17,065 to JPY 26,440 52-week range, while the Lang & Schwarz indication in Germany was EUR 15.14 in the pre-market at 8:05 a.m. CEST.
The market picture is therefore mixed in a precise sense: fiscal 2027 first-quarter revenue expanded by 17.50 percent, but net income fell 1.70 percent and the Japanese share price remained 20.42 percent below its yearly high. The next results will show whether operating leverage improves after the strong sales start.
