IwaiCosmo Holdings reports record-high interim profits on strong performance

IwaiCosmo Holdings Co., Ltd. has released preliminary consolidated financial results for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 (April 1 to September 30, 2025), ahead of the official announcement on October 24. The flash report reveals a substantial increase in operating revenue to JPY 14,458 million, up 12.7% from JPY 12,826 million in the same period last year. This growth was primarily driven by higher U.S. equity revenue.

The preliminary figures also show operating profit rising to JPY 5,478 million (up 28.0%), ordinary profit reaching JPY 5,784 million (up 25.6%), and profit attributable to owners of parent increasing to JPY 4,619 million (up 45.1%). Earnings per share are projected at JPY 196.67, significantly higher than JPY 135.56 in the prior year.

These results mark an all-time high for operating revenue, operating profit, ordinary profit, and profit attributable to owners of parent for a second-quarter cumulative period. Notably, ordinary profit has maintained a positive trend for 52 consecutive quarters. The company emphasizes that these preliminary figures are based on reasonable judgment and actual results may vary.
