Keyence schedules its Q2 FY2026 financial results announcement for October 29, 2026, according to Keyence. Keyence stock was trading at EUR 461.50 at Lang & Schwarz on October 2, 2026 at 2:37 p.m. CEST, up 1.04 percent from the EUR 456.75 prior close.
October results date sets the next test
The October 29 announcement will be the next scheduled reporting point after Keyence reported first-quarter results for the period ended June 20, 2026. The date matters because the latest operating figures showed faster growth than the prior-year comparison, giving the October update a high numerical hurdle.
JPX Market Explorer reported first-quarter sales of JPY 346.62 billion, up 32.80 percent from JPY 261.08 billion a year earlier. Net income reached JPY 139.13 billion, compared with JPY 92.12 billion in the year-ago period, an increase of 51.04 percent.
Growth meets a premium valuation
The operating picture is unusually profitable for an industrial-equipment supplier. Keyence sells sensors, machine-vision systems, measurement equipment and automation products, while its direct-sales model supports high-value applications across manufacturing.
On the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Keyence was last at JPY 80,270.00 on October 2, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. JST. The JPY 51,510.00 to JPY 87,920.00 52-week range places the price 8.71 percent below the high, while market capitalization stood at JPY 19.5 trillion on the same date.
Investing.com lists an average 12-month target of JPY 97,866.70 and 13 Buy, 2 Hold and 0 Sell ratings as of October 2, 2026. The target is 21.92 percent above the Tokyo price, highlighting the gap between strong reported growth and an already elevated valuation.
Keyence stock faces the October benchmark
The October release will show whether the 32.80 percent sales increase and 51.04 percent net-income increase were a one-quarter acceleration or the start of a broader earnings trend. The key comparison is therefore operational: another year-over-year expansion would support the current premium, while a sharp slowdown would put the valuation gap under greater scrutiny.
Keyence was trading at EUR 461.50 at Lang & Schwarz on October 2, 2026 at 2:37 p.m. CEST, plus 1.04 percent versus the EUR 456.75 prior close. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Keyence stock.
