Sugi Holdings stock (ISIN JP3397060009) was trading at JPY 1,240 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 8, 2026, down 0.20 percent from the prior close. The price stood 37.7 percent below the 52-week high of JPY 1,991, leaving analyst expectations well above the current quotation.

Analysts set a JPY 1,668.3 target

According to Investing.com as of October 7, 2026, the consensus rating was Buy, based on 9 analysts. Three analysts rated the stock Buy, six chose Hold and none rated it Sell.

The same consensus put the average 12-month price target at JPY 1,668.3, with a high of JPY 1,900 and a low of JPY 1,300. The average target was 34.5 percent above the JPY 1,240 market price, a gap that makes expectations a central issue for the shares.

First-quarter sales beat the estimate

Yahoo Finance reported Q1 FY27 revenue of JPY 270.18 billion and earnings of JPY 6.9 billion. Revenue was above the JPY 267.52 billion estimate, while GAAP EPS of JPY 19.07 was below the JPY 21.43 estimate.

The earnings split matters because sales growth did not translate into an earnings beat. Yahoo Finance also listed a 2.55 percent profit margin for Q1 FY27, giving investors a concrete measure for judging whether higher revenue can improve profitability.

Sugi stock remains below its yearly high

Sugi stock had a market capitalization of JPY 461.4 billion and trading volume of 764,800 shares on October 8, 2026. The 52-week range was JPY 1,223 to JPY 1,991, so the latest price was JPY 17 above the lower boundary and JPY 751 below the upper boundary.

The Tokyo-based drugstore operator therefore combines a modest same-session decline with a wide distance from its annual high. For investors, the key tension is visible in the numbers: the Buy consensus and JPY 1,668.3 average target contrast with Q1 GAAP EPS below its estimate.
