Keyence stock falls 1.92 percent to EUR 448.70

Keyence Corporation stock (ISIN JP3236200006) was trading at EUR 448.70 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 9:36 a.m. CEST, down 1.92 percent versus the EUR 457.50 prior close on October 7, 2026. The company is due to report its second-quarter fiscal 2027 results on October 29, 2026, according to Keyence.

Tokyo quote shows a wide range

Keyence trades on the Tokyo Stock Exchange under ticker 6861.T, a listing and identity pairing reported by Global Banking and Finance. The Tokyo quote stood at JPY 80,000 at 3:30 p.m. JST on October 8, 2026, down JPY 1,560 from JPY 81,560. Its 52-week range was JPY 51,510 to JPY 87,920, placing the latest Tokyo quote 8.10 percent below the high.

Keyence's market capitalization was JPY 19.4 trillion as of October 8, 2026. The contrast between the Tokyo quote and the euro quotation matters for German investors because the reference price in this article is the Lang & Schwarz indication, not the home-market quote.

First-quarter growth remains measurable

JPX Market Explorer reported that Keyence sales reached JPY 346.62 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared with JPY 261.08 billion a year earlier. That represents growth of 32.77 percent. Net income rose to JPY 139.13 billion from JPY 92.12 billion, an increase of 51.04 percent, while basic earnings per share climbed to JPY 573.69 from JPY 379.82.

The operating picture gives the price report a concrete counterweight. Keyence entered October with sharply higher first-quarter sales and earnings, but the share-price snapshot shows that the euro quote remains below the prior close even as the next results date approaches.

Valuation remains the counterweight

For valuation context, Simply Wall St listed a price-to-earnings ratio of 40.20 times in its October 7, 2026 update. The same analysis cited an average target of JPY 95,367 from 15 analysts, up from JPY 89,075 on August 12, 2026. The target is 19.21 percent above the JPY 80,000 Tokyo quote, using the two values in the same currency.

That valuation leaves the October 29 results date as the next measurable test. Investors will be able to compare the second-quarter figures with the first-quarter sales increase of 32.77 percent and the 51.04 percent rise in net income.

Euro quote stays below prior close

At Lang & Schwarz, Keyence was trading at EUR 448.70 on October 8, 2026 at 9:36 a.m. CEST, down 1.92 percent versus the prior close of EUR 457.50 on October 7, 2026. The Tokyo Stock Exchange quote stood at JPY 80,000 at 3:30 p.m. JST on October 8, 2026.
