Q3 2026 earnings summary13 Feb, 2026

Executive summary

  • Revenue guidance was revised down due to ship holds in the SIS division and weaker U.S. GI performance, though Q3 saw 4% YoY growth led by Europe, emerging markets, and China, with FX tailwinds.

  • U.S. GI underperformed in Q3 due to execution issues, not product competitiveness, but corrective actions and leadership changes are expected to drive Q4 growth.

  • China returned to 5-6% growth in Q3 after prior declines, attributed to local strategy pivots and leadership changes.

  • Operating profit and profit attributable to owners declined sharply YoY, with the Orthopedic Business classified as discontinued.

  • Ongoing restructuring, including reduction of ~2,000 positions and new executive appointments, aims to enhance operational execution.

Financial highlights

  • Q3 revenue was ¥261.0 billion (+4% YoY after FX adjustment); 9-month revenue was ¥715.4 billion (-1% YoY after FX adjustment).

  • Q3 adjusted operating profit was ¥39.3 billion (15.1% margin, -2.1pp YoY); 9-month adjusted operating profit was ¥89.9 billion (-30% YoY).

  • Gross margin declined due to ship holds, recalls, and higher U.S. tariffs; Q3 gross margin was 63.2%, down from 66.9% YoY.

  • Cash and cash equivalents at period end were ¥169.5 billion, a decrease of ¥83.1 billion from the previous fiscal year-end.

  • R&D expenditures for 9 months were ¥80.5 billion, with a full-year forecast of ¥113.0 billion.

Outlook and guidance

  • Full-year revenue forecast remains at ¥998 billion, but operating profit guidance was revised down to ¥87–75 billion.

  • Adjusted operating margin forecast is 12.7%–13.9% due to ship holds and COGS variability.

  • Profit attributable to owners forecast: ¥50.0–59.0 billion; EPS: ¥45–¥53.

  • Commitment to 100+ basis points of annual margin improvement and midterm plan for 20%+ operating margin remains.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
