Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. ## What is the Kura Sushi USA share price today?

The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Kura Sushi USA pay? Kura Sushi USA, Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Kura Sushi USA on? Kura Sushi USA is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Kura Sushi USA profitable? Kura Sushi USA, Inc. earned $423 K of net profit in the May 2026 quarter, −25.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. The full FY25 year was a loss of $1.9 M. That is 0.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $565 K. 8 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does Kura Sushi USA make, and is it growing? Kura Sushi USA, Inc. reported $85.9 M of revenue in the May 2026 quarter, +16.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 12th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 44.5% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $283 M. The last four reported quarters add to $319 M. FY25 revenue was $283 M, +18.9% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +18.5% on average, against 44.5% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +18.4%, against +18.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Kura Sushi USA keep? Kura Sushi USA, Inc.'s operating margin was 0.0% in the May 2026 quarter, 0.2 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between −15.4% and 0.2%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +0.2 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.5 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Kura Sushi USA's profit turning into cash? Kura Sushi USA, Inc.'s cash-flow history is too short to judge how much of its profit turns into cash. In FY25 it brought in $24.7 M of operating cash against −$1.9 M of profit. After $46.1 M of spending on assets, free cash was −$21.4 M: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Kura Sushi USA's cash go? Kura Sushi USA, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $129 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 15.3% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $129 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Kura Sushi USA's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Kura Sushi USA, Inc.'s P/E is 609.6×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 27% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 719.9×, over 1 year of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: the multiple is low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Kura Sushi USA business getting better or worse? Kura Sushi USA, Inc.'s business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Kura Sushi USA earn on its capital? Kura Sushi USA, Inc. earned a ROE of −1% in FY25. That is up from a low of −11% in FY21. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 8.4 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a −0.7% net margin and 0.66× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −0.7% net margin × 0.66× asset turnover × 1.86× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −0.9% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: −0.7% − 7.7% = −8.4 percentage points. The 7.7% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. ## Does Kura Sushi USA have too much debt? Kura Sushi USA, Inc. has total debt of $208 M against shareholder equity of $231 M as of May 2026, so its debt is 0.90× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.80 in FY21 to 0.74 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Kura Sushi USA shareholding pattern? 24.6% of Kura Sushi USA, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so a large group of traders is betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 6.6 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Kura Sushi USA from balance-sheet trouble? For Kura Sushi USA, Inc., the Z-score is 2.58. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.58 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Kura Sushi USA rank in its industry?
