Nikon Posts Ninth-Month Loss: Net (-$169M) Misses Estimates

Nikon Inc. (6010) reported a net loss of $169 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, missing analyst estimates of a $30 million loss. The decline followed weakness in imaging solutions and a drop in demand for cameras and lenses, partially offset by gains in AI and machine vision software. Revenue for the period fell 12.3% year-over-year to $1.94 billion. The company cited supply chain disruptions and shifting demand toward lower-margin products as key factors. Shares of Nikon closed at ¥3,450, down 2.1% on February 5, 2026.
