Overview of Revisions to Earnings Forecasts
For the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027, non-consolidated performance is expected to exceed previous forecasts as new loan originations in the core lending business and the impact of rising interest rates have progressed smoothly. Consolidated and full-year earnings forecasts have also been revised upward, and net income is expected to be revised upward as a result of assuming a lower effective tax rate.
Shareholder Returns and Outlook
The dividend forecast has been increased to 80 yen per year (interim 40 yen, year-end 40 yen). Under a shareholder return policy that takes ROE and the capital adequacy ratio into account, we emphasize a balance between growth investment and stable dividends. While maintaining financial soundness, the company indicates it may consider additional returns depending on future performance trends.
