- A US brokerage cut its Denso target to JPY 1,700 on October 13, 2026.
- Denso reported JPY 1.91 trillion in first-quarter revenue, up 9.10 percent year over year.
- Denso's next second-quarter results are scheduled for October 29, 2026.
Denso (ISIN JP3551500006) received a JPY 1,700 price target after a US brokerage cut its rating from Equal-Weight to Underweight on October 13, 2026, as Yahoo Finance reported on October 14, 2026. The target fell from JPY 2,100 by 19.05 percent, putting earnings due later in October at the center of the next market test.
Why did the target fall?
The downgrade changes the tone around Denso before its next scheduled report. The target of JPY 1,700 is JPY 400 below the previous JPY 2,100 level, while the rating moved from Equal-Weight to Underweight. The publishing report did not identify the brokerage by name, so the investment case turns on the company's operating figures rather than on an attributed house view.
Three dates and figures
On July 31, 2026, Denso reported first-quarter revenue of JPY 1.91 trillion, up 9.10 percent year over year, while operating profit was JPY 84.2 billion, down 21.50 percent, according to Hatenblog. On October 7, 2026, a Japanese securities house kept a Neutral rating and reduced its target from JPY 2,100 to JPY 2,050, according to Monex. On October 13, 2026, the US brokerage cut its rating and target to Underweight and JPY 1,700, respectively, as Yahoo Finance reported.
What comes next for earnings?
Denso's investor calendar lists October 29, 2026, for fiscal year 2027 second-quarter financial results, followed by interim dividend payment in late November and third-quarter results in late January 2027, according to the Denso investor-relations page. The key comparison is clear: first-quarter revenue grew 9.10 percent, but operating profit declined 21.50 percent.
