More homes sold
Home Position Co., Ltd. (TSE: 2999), which builds and sells ready-built detached houses, reported non-consolidated results for FY8/2026, the year from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2026, on October 9, 2026 under Japanese GAAP. Net sales rose 10.7% to ¥19,226 million, operating profit 87.0% to ¥1,054 million and ordinary profit 98.4% to ¥803 million. Net profit rose 47.0% to ¥569 million, or ¥60.71 per share against ¥42.93.
The company said house prices kept rising on high building and labour costs while real wages lagged and higher mortgage rates made some buyers cautious. Against that, it strengthened purchases of good-quality land, made sales more efficient and improved construction management, and the number of homes sold exceeded the previous year. Home Position has a single segment, detached-house sales.
