Hatena Falls to ¥995 Million Loss for the Year, but Expects Return to ¥117 Million Profit This Term
Hatena announced its earnings at midday on September 11, reporting a non-consolidated net loss of 995 million yen for the fiscal year ending July 2026, tumbling from a profit of 230 million yen the previous term. However, it expects to return to a profit of 117 million yen for the fiscal year ending July 2027. At the same time, it said it will forgo the previously undecided year-end lump-sum dividend for the past term, and left the annual dividend for the current term undecided. For the most recent three months, the May-to-July period, the net loss came to 277 million yen, falling from a profit of 26 million yen a year earlier, though its operating margin on sales improved sharply to 8.3 percent from 4.0 percent in the same period last year.
