Global inflation is uneven and central banks are watching oil closely. US 10 year yields hover around 4.7% as inflation expectations adjust, which keeps the spotlight on companies that can grow earnings rather than rely on cheap money. In that context, a Healthy high growth potential screener can help. This article highlights three stocks from that list that analysts expect to deliver strong earnings growth over the next three years. The three stocks covered below are just a sample, and the...

Shinagawa Refra stock came into this earnings season quietly ahead, with a roughly 10% gain over the past month and double digit returns over three months, as investors leaned into a low 3.8x P/E and a discounted valuation against peers. The headline this quarter is not another growth spurt. It is the quality check on those strong trailing earnings, which include a ¥27.4b one off gain and a net margin of 14.7%. Today is about whether the market still pays up for that story once the non...

Suruga Bank stock came into this earnings print already on a tear, up about 21% over the past three months, and the latest numbers give investors fresh fuel to debate whether that optimism is justified. The headline is simple: profitability looks stronger while the balance sheet still asks for a risk premium. The emotional tug of this quarter sits in one place. Suruga Bank is running with a high non performing loan ratio of 6.2% and only 49% allowance coverage. That combination keeps credit...

Tanabe Consulting Group entered this earnings day with the stock at ¥751 and a trailing P/E of 21.2x, priced above both its professional services peers and the wider industry. That premium valuation met a quarter that showed only modest movement in the headline profit engine, with Q1 2027 basic EPS of ¥5.00 and net income of ¥160.59m. The immediate question for you is whether that richer P/E still feels comfortable when the latest revenue line of ¥3,844.28m and earnings power do not clearly...

Why MEC’s latest earnings matter for investors MEC (TSE:4971) has drawn fresh attention after reporting half year 2026 results on August 10, with higher sales, net income, and basic earnings per share compared with the same period a year earlier. See our latest analysis for MEC. MEC’s latest half year 2026 earnings update and earnings call on 10 August arrived after a strong year to date share price return of 73.36%. However, the share price is still down 21.78% over the past 90 days and has...

Sun came into this earnings season priced for perfection. The stock has rallied hard over the past three months and now trades on a premium P/E multiple versus both the wider Japanese tech sector and its closest peers, while also sitting well above a discounted cash flow value estimate. The headline this quarter is not growth but pressure. Profitability over the past year has been flattered by a very large one off gain and the latest trailing net margin sits below the prior year, which puts...

Sony Financial Group stock has been grinding higher in recent months, yet the latest earnings snapshot forces investors to question whether the optimism matches the fundamentals. The headline is not the share price. It is the earnings quality hit from a very large one off loss of ¥222.7b that still hangs over trailing results. Net profit margin sits at 2.3% compared with 3.0% a year earlier. The stock trades on a P/E of 18.9x, which is above industry and peer averages. Today is less about a...

Tazmo stock closed at ¥3,490 on the day of its Q2 release, capping a choppy few months in which the share price slipped over the week and the past month while holding slightly higher over three months. The earnings print that hit this valuation story was a jolt. Revenue for the quarter sat at ¥6,717.5m yet the company swung to a net loss, putting fresh pressure on a market that already priced Tazmo at a rich P/E and above a discounted cash flow estimate. Is Tazmo now priced for perfection, or...

In August 2026, Fuji Corporation reported first-quarter results showing sales of ¥60,597 million and net income of ¥12,622 million, both higher than a year earlier.

Business Engineering came into this print with the stock up over the past month and trading on a mid-teens P/E, quietly priced as a steady compounder rather than a high-flyer. The Q1 2027 numbers largely backed up that view. Revenue landed at ¥6,781.4m and basic earnings per share reached ¥21.36, both aligned with a business that has been steadily lifting profit over the last year. The real headline is margin resilience. Net income of ¥1,274.6m kept profitability firmly intact, which helps...

Why Fuji Oil Stock Is Back On Investors’ Radar Fuji Oil (TSE:2607) has drawn fresh attention after reporting first quarter results on 7 August 2026. Sales were ¥179,807 million, net income reached ¥5,572 million, and basic EPS was ¥64.81. Those figures compare with sales of ¥181,831 million, net income of ¥3,131 million, and basic EPS of ¥36.42 in the same quarter a year earlier. The combination of lower sales and higher earnings is central to how some investors are now reassessing the...

Kappa Create walked into this earnings day with a flat week and a solid 3 month run, yet the stock closed at ¥1,585 as investors weighed a fresh reminder that profits remain elusive. The headline is simple. Q1 2027 delivered another quarterly loss with basic earnings per share of ¥15.50 in the red and net income also in the red at ¥765 million. For a restaurant operator that lives and dies on operating leverage, that loss profile clashes with a stock that still trades at a P/S of 1.1x...

ANEST IWATA stock has quietly moved higher in recent weeks, with a roughly 13% gain over the past three months into yesterday’s ¥1,891 close. The earnings print that just hit the tape puts one issue front and center for you: profitability is doing the heavy lifting. First quarter 2027 basic earnings per share came in at ¥28.91, contributing to trailing twelve month earnings of ¥142.16 per share and a P/E of 13.2x that still sits below domestic machinery peers. The headline story is a company...

The strong year-on-year jump in basic earnings per share from continuing operations, to ¥240.3 from ¥146.32, highlights improved profitability and operating efficiency across Konami’s businesses. Next, we will examine how this sharp earnings and...
