Furukawa Electric (JP3826800009) was last at JPY 3,831.00 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 13, 2026, 38.62 percent below its JPY 6,241.00 52-week high. On September 24, 2026, the company raised its interim profit forecast from JPY 42.5 billion to JPY 58.0 billion, according to Simply Wall St.
Three dated earnings signals
On May 29, 2026, Furukawa published fiscal 2026 results, with revenue of JPY 1.3076 trillion and net income of JPY 72.5 billion, figures listed by Reuters. On August 7, 2026, first-quarter revenue reached JPY 365.2 billion and net income JPY 22.2 billion, according to Simply Wall St. On September 24, 2026, the interim profit forecast rose to JPY 58.0 billion from JPY 42.5 billion, while sales guidance remained JPY 720.0 billion.
What the profit revision changes
The revision improves the first-half earnings picture, but its composition matters. FilingReader reported that Furukawa expected a JPY 22.0 billion gain from the sale of UACJ investment securities, alongside a JPY 15.5 billion increase in interim profit guidance. Revenue and operating profit forecasts stayed at JPY 720.0 billion and JPY 49.5 billion, respectively.
That split gives investors two separate signals. The one-off securities gain lifts reported profit, while the unchanged operating profit forecast leaves the operating outlook tied to demand for optical communications, infrastructure and automotive products. Furukawa's business spans electrical equipment, optical fiber and cable products, according to the company profile supplied by the finance data service.
Next results date is November 12
Furukawa's investor-relations calendar lists November 12, 2026, for the announcement of fiscal 2027 second-quarter results, according to Furukawa. The release will provide the first reported period after the September 24 forecast revision.
