Kioxia Holdings stock (ISIN JP3236330001) was last at JPY 17,900 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 7, 2026, down JPY 835 or 4.46 percent from the prior close. The next earnings date gives the market a clear checkpoint: Kioxia Holdings has scheduled its second-quarter FY2026 results for October 30, 2026.

Results set a high bar

Kioxia's fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2026, with revenue of JPY 1.7671 trillion and operating income of JPY 1.3083 trillion. Net income reached JPY 842.165 billion, while operating cash flow came to JPY 866.337 billion in the same quarter.

These figures put the upcoming report under pressure to demonstrate that AI-related storage demand is translating into sustained earnings rather than a single pricing surge. FinanceFeeds reported on September 9, 2026, that Kioxia's NAND average selling prices rose 70 percent sequentially in the April to June quarter, while fiscal first-quarter revenue increased 415.5 percent year over year.

Analysts see wide dispersion

The consensus picture is bullish but unusually broad. According to Stock Analysis, 16 analysts polled by S&P Global rate the stock Buy, with an average 12-month target of JPY 37,304, a low of JPY 16,333 and a high of JPY 66,667. Against the October 7 price of JPY 17,900, the average target lies 108.4 percent above the price.

The range matters because the low target sits below the current quotation while the high target is more than three times higher. That spread makes the October 30 report especially important for testing assumptions about NAND pricing, data-center demand and investment costs.

October 30 is the next test

Kioxia Holdings lists its second-quarter FY2026 financial results for October 30, 2026, at 6:45 p.m. JST. The date follows a fiscal first quarter in which revenue was JPY 1.7671 trillion, compared with JPY 1.0029 trillion in the preceding quarter, a sequential increase of 76.2 percent.

For investors, the key issue is whether operating income can remain above the JPY 1.3083 trillion fiscal first-quarter level while Kioxia expands flash-memory capacity. The share price and the broad analyst target range show that the report carries both a high earnings hurdle and a high valuation sensitivity.

Stock trades below yearly high

Kioxia Holdings stock was last at JPY 17,900 on October 7, 2026, with a session range of JPY 17,820 to JPY 18,750 and volume of 35,096,800 shares. Its market capitalization was JPY 29.4 trillion, and the 52-week range was JPY 1,933.33 to JPY 37,566.67.
