AI要約
Revision of Earnings Guidance
The consolidated and non-consolidated earnings guidance for the full year ending March 31, 2027 has been revised upward. The revision is based on assumptions including an increase in average loan balances and higher net interest income driven by a rising interest rate environment. For the cumulative period, ordinary income, ordinary profit, interim net income, and interim net income per share have all been revised upward, indicating improvement compared with the same period last year.
Revision of Dividend Forecast and Shareholder Returns
The annual dividend has been increased to 36 yen 50 sen (total of interim and year-end payments across Q1-end, Q2-end, Q3-end and year-end). Backed by the rise in interim net income per share, the dividend payout ratio is expected to be approx. 40%. The reason for this revision is the expectation of higher-than-previously-forecast net income for the period.
