Nomura Micro Science raises Q2 FY26 earnings forecast on project progress

Nomura Micro Science Co., Ltd. announced a revision to its consolidated earnings forecast for the second quarter (interim period) of FY2026, ending September 30, 2025. The company now projects sales revenue of JPY 25,193 million, up 2.8% from the previous forecast of JPY 24,500 million. Operating profit is expected to reach JPY 2,861 million, a substantial 35.3% increase from the prior JPY 2,115 million.

Interim net income attributable to parent company shareholders is forecast at JPY 1,413 million, representing a significant 71.3% jump from the previous JPY 825 million, resulting in JPY 37.26 per share. This upward revision is attributed to faster-than-anticipated progress in water treatment systems projects in Japan and the US, alongside cost reductions in major water treatment system projects.

Despite the strong interim performance, the full-year consolidated earnings forecast for FY2026 remains unchanged due to potential fluctuations in the timing and progress of other water treatment system orders. Delays were noted in China and other regions. The company will monitor the situation and announce any further revisions as necessary.
