JAPAN LIFELINE CO.

Japan Lifeline posted sales of JPY 59.18 billion in Q4 2026 (+4.6% yoy), beating expectations by 1.51%; earnings per share were JPY 133.30. Operating profit and net income rose slightly, while gross margin contracted by about 100 basis points to 59.4% due to an unfavorable product mix and cuts in reimbursement prices. Competition from new technologies such as pulsed-field ablation and margin pressure weigh on the outlook, after which the stock fell 9.85% to JPY 1,401. Management continues to emphasize innovation, expanding core products and entering new therapeutic areas, but sees risks from price and competitive pressure. » Mais em de.investing.com
