Kodensha walked into this earnings day with a hot stock and a heavy question. The share price sat at ¥11,400 after a powerful 90 day run, while the P/E multiple of 32x and a discounted cash flow value of ¥6,696.7 already pointed to a rich valuation.

For anyone looking beyond the next few sessions, the key question now is how that margin story and the current valuation discount...
