Profit Declines Due to Lower Margins on Completed Projects – Haseko FY2025 Q2

Haseko Corporation announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2025 on March 12.
For the reporting period (April 1, 2024 – September 30, 2024), net sales increased to ¥558.75 billion (up 6.8% year-on-year), while operating income fell to ¥35.43 billion (down 18.1% year-on-year), ordinary income declined to ¥36.27 billion (down 16.2% year-on-year), and net income dropped to ¥19.37 billion (down 32.5% year-on-year).
The value of completed work in the core construction business rose to ¥285.2 billion (up 8.9% year-on-year), mainly due to increased non-consolidated construction volume. However, gross profit on completed construction decreased to ¥35.9 billion (down 9.4% year-on-year), impacted by rising material and labor costs. The gross profit margin fell to 12.6%, down 2.5 percentage points year-on-year. A total of 34 projects were completed, including 6 logistics facilities. Segment sales reached ¥395.8 billion (up 3.5% year-on-year), while operating income declined to ¥24.7 billion (down 21.5%).
Non-consolidated orders at the end of the quarter hit a record high of ¥307.1 billion (up 50.8% year-on-year). The company received 39 new condominium construction orders, including 14 large-scale projects (200+ units) in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and 7 projects in the Tokai region (including 2 large-scale properties). Additionally, 3 rental housing projects were ordered.
In the real estate-related business, despite a decrease in new condominium deliveries, segment net sales rose to ¥77.1 billion (up 35.7% year-on-year), and operating income increased to ¥12.9 billion (up 3.5% year-on-year), driven by growth in other real estate transactions.
In the service-related business, segment sales declined to ¥125.0 billion (down 1.1% year-on-year), and operating income dropped to ¥5.3 billion (down 25.9% year-on-year), due to fewer deliveries of newly built condominiums and reduced corporate real estate brokerage activity.
Full-year forecast:
• Orders received: ¥580 billion
• Net sales: ¥1.18 trillion
• Operating income: ¥82 billion
• Ordinary income: ¥80 billion
• Net income: ¥53 billion
