forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, projecting net sales of JPY 54,900 million (3.6% increase from previous forecast), operating income of JPY 5,300 million (26.2% increase), and net income attributable to owners of the parent of JPY 4,300 million (13.2% increase). The improvements are attributed to progress in large-scale projects, restructuring of order intake systems, promotion of industrialization, and recognition of special gains from partial sales of policy shareholdings. The non-consolidated results have also been upwardly revised, with net sales expected at JPY 47,200 million, ordinary income at JPY 5,100 million, and net income at JPY 3,900 million.\n\n### Revision of Dividend Forecast and Shareholder Return Policy\nRegarding the dividend forecast, the year-end dividend for the fiscal year ending March 2026 has been revised upward from JPY 47 to JPY 56 per share, an increase of JPY 9. This reflects the upward revision of earnings guidance and the company\u2019s financial condition, aligning with the mid-term management plan targeting a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 30% or higher, demonstrating stronger shareholder returns. The dividend increase proposal will be submitted at the 81st Annual General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for June 2026.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales (Consolidated): JPY 54,900 million (3.6% increase from previous forecast)\nOperating Income (Consolidated): JPY 5,300 million (26.2% increase from previous forecast)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent (Consolidated): JPY 4,300 million (13.2% increase from previous forecast)\nAnnual Dividend (per share): JPY 56.00 (Dividend increased by JPY 9 from previous forecast of JPY 47.00)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#YamatoCorporation, #EarningsForecastRevision, #DividendIncrease, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Consolidated Net Sales: JPY 54,900 million (3.6% increase from previous forecast)\nConsolidated Operating Income: JPY 5,300 million (26.2% increase from previous forecast)\nAnnual Dividend (per share): JPY 56.00 (Dividend increased by JPY 9 from previous forecast of JPY 47.00)","jir_meta_title":"Yamato Corporation Upwardly Revises Fiscal 2026 Earnings Forecast to JPY 54.9 Billion Net Sales and Raises Dividend to JPY 56","jir_meta_description":"Yamato Corporation announced upward revisions to its consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, with net sales projected at JPY 54.9 billion and operating income at JPY 5.3 billion, alongside a year-end dividend increase to JPY 56 per share.","jir_og_title":"Yamato Corporation Announces Revised Fiscal 2026 Earnings Forecast and Dividend Increase","jir_og_description":"Upward revisions to sales and profit forecasts alongside a dividend increase of JPY 9 to JPY 56, signaling enhanced shareholder returns.","jir_og_image_url":"\/assets\/og\/company-general_ir.jpg","jir_chart_data_collection":"[]","ir_related_company":17388,"ir_release_date":"","ir_type":"","ir_is_new":false,"ir_document_url":"","jir_ir_type":"earnings_guidance","footnotes":""},"sector":[],"importance":[],"class_list":["post-23480","ir_release","type-ir_release","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.7 -
