Toho Shares Fall After Net Profit Forecast Raised to 48 Billion Yen
Toho's stock declined on the Tokyo Stock Exchange after its upward revision was driven solely by a gain on the sale of investment securities.
Toho Co., Ltd. saw its share price fall on the Tokyo Stock Exchange after the company announced its second-quarter earnings and revised its full-year net profit forecast for the fiscal year ending February 2027 from 41 billion yen to 48 billion yen, according to gamebiz.jp.
The upward revision was driven solely by a gain on the sale of a portion of the company's investment securities, not by improved operating performance. Because the raise was limited to net profit and did not meet market expectations, the stock declined.
Earlier Results Showed a Profit Decline
On October 15, 2026, Toho announced its second-quarter earnings and simultaneously revised its full-year earnings forecast.
The company's August interim results showed a profit decline despite hits from Detective Conan and Chiikawa, affected by the previous year's Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and Kokuhō and upfront overseas investment.
