Nomura Holdings stock falls 1.15 percent in after-hours trading

Nomura Holdings stock was trading at EUR 8.60 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026 at 10:20 p.m. CEST, down 1.15 percent versus the prior close of EUR 8.70 on September 29. The latest rating change adds a counterweight to strong operating figures from the first quarter of fiscal 2027.

Profit rises in fiscal Q1

According to note on July 29, 2026, Nomura reported quarterly net income attributable to shareholders of JPY 145.6 billion for April through June 2026. That was a 39.2 percent increase from the comparable period, while return on equity reached 15.4 percent on an annualized basis.

The same fiscal-quarter review put profit before income taxes at JPY 211.5 billion, up 32.0 percent year over year. Revenue after financial expenses reached JPY 686.7 billion, an increase of 31.2 percent, giving investors a clearer view of operating performance than gross revenue alone.

Analyst downgrade meets Buy consensus

According to MarketBeat on September 26, 2026, Wall Street Zen cut Nomura from Buy to Hold. MarketBeat also reported that the broader analyst consensus remained Buy, with a USD 10.20 average price target.

The split matters because Nomura's earnings are exposed to market activity, trading volumes and capital-markets conditions. The strong quarterly comparison supports the results case, while the downgrade signals that analysts are applying a more cautious view to the valuation or the durability of recent profits.

Tokyo listing anchors the company

Marketscreener identifies Nomura Holdings, Inc. under ISIN JP3762600009 and securities code 8604 on the Japan Exchange. Its business spans wealth management, investment management, wholesale securities services and banking, leaving the group with several earnings drivers but also significant exposure to financial-market conditions.

For investors, the key comparison is between the 39.2 percent year-over-year increase in first-quarter net income and the 1.15 percent same-day decline in the euro quotation. Earnings momentum and market sentiment are therefore pointing in different directions.
