SMBC Nikko Securities lowered its target for Tosoh Corporation stock from JPY 2,600 to JPY 2,500 on October 5, 2026, while the company is showing a sharper operating rebound in fiscal 2027. The Lang & Schwarz prior close for Tosoh was EUR 14.80 on October 5, 2026.

Target cut meets stronger first quarter

According to TradingView on October 5, 2026, SMBC Nikko Securities reduced its Tosoh target from JPY 2,600 to JPY 2,500. The change gives the stock a more cautious analyst reference even as the latest operating data point to a materially better start to the new fiscal year.

Yahoo Finance identifies fiscal 2027 first-quarter revenue at JPY 274.17 billion and earnings at JPY 19.46 billion. Revenue increased 11.8 percent from the year-earlier quarter, while the reported profit margin was 7.10 percent.

Profit recovery follows a weak year

For fiscal 2026, Yuhodb reports revenue of JPY 1.02 trillion, down 4.1 percent from fiscal 2025, and operating profit of JPY 95.5 billion, down 3.4 percent. Net profit attributable to owners fell to JPY 41.6 billion from JPY 58.0 billion, a 28.3 percent decline.

The comparison matters because the fiscal 2026 weakness was concentrated in the full-year base, while the first quarter of fiscal 2027 delivered both higher revenue and a 93.9 percent increase in operating profit to JPY 31.2 billion, according to Corporate Visit on September 25, 2026. The risk is that chemical pricing and raw-material effects can make quarterly gains more cyclical than the headline growth rate suggests.
