what happened
Tokyo Gas published results for the first half, ended September 30, 2026, Dow Jones Newswires reports. Revenue rose to 1.38 trillion yen from 1.35 trillion a year earlier, and operating profit came in at 103.28 billion yen versus 95.29 billion. Pretax profit climbed to 107.95 billion yen from 86.20 billion, but net profit fell to 99.03 billion yen from 129.68 billion, and earnings per share dropped to 300.63 yen from 366.15 yen.
The company also issued its forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2027: revenue of 3.19 trillion yen, operating profit of 174 billion yen, pretax profit of 160 billion yen, net profit of 140 billion yen and earnings per share of 430.55 yen. The figures follow Japanese accounting standards.
why it matters
The gap between rising operating and pretax profit and lower net profit points to factors below the operating line that the report does not explain. For gas utilities, gas and LNG prices and the yen exchange rate matter, so the full-year outlook gives the sector a reference point.
