million (previous forecast: \u00a5688,000 million), operating income at \u00a5137,000 million (previous forecast: \u00a5130,000 million), profit before tax at \u00a5164,000 million (previous forecast: \u00a5129,000 million), and net income attributable to owners of parent at \u00a5116,000 million (previous forecast: \u00a590,000 million), all exceeding the previous forecasts. The primary reasons for these revisions include mitigation of the impact from additional tariffs in the United States, the weaker yen exchange rate trend, and the impact of acquiring shares in the subsidiary Niterra Materials.\n\n### Revision of Dividend Forecast and Shareholder Return Policy\nThe dividend forecast has also been revised, with the annual dividend planned to increase to \u00a5205 (previous forecast: \u00a5186). The dividend policy combines a stable dividend component targeting a DOE of approximately 4% as a lower limit and a performance-linked component targeting a payout ratio of about 10%. This dividend increase based on the revised earnings forecast reflects the company\u2019s commitment to prioritizing shareholder returns. The year-end dividend is scheduled at \u00a5112 (previous forecast: \u00a593).","jir_financial_highlights":"Revenue: \u00a5724,000 million (5.2% increase from previous forecast)\nOperating Income: \u00a5137,000 million (5.4% increase from previous forecast)\nProfit before Tax: \u00a5164,000 million (27.1% increase from previous forecast)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: \u00a5116,000 million (28.9% increase from previous forecast)\nBasic Earnings per Share: \u00a5584.64 (Unknown)\nAnnual Dividend: \u00a5205 (\u00a519 increase from previous forecast)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#NGKInsulators, #EarningsGuidanceRevision, #DividendIncrease, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Revenue: \u00a5724,000 million (5.2% increase from previous forecast)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: \u00a5116,000 million (28.9% increase from previous forecast)\nAnnual Dividend: \u00a5205 (\u00a519 increase from previous forecast)","jir_meta_title":"NGK INSULATORS Revises FY2026 Earnings Guidance Upward to \u00a5724 Billion Revenue and \u00a5116 Billion Net Income, Raises Dividend to \u00a5205","jir_meta_description":"NGK INSULATORS, LTD. announced an upward revision of its consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2026 to revenue of \u00a5724,000 million and net income attributable to owners of parent of \u00a5116,000 million, along with an increase in the annual dividend forecast to \u00a5205.","jir_og_title":"NGK INSULATORS Revises FY2026 Earnings Guidance and Dividend Forecast","jir_og_description":"Upward revision of earnings guidance supported by mitigated US tariff impact and yen depreciation, with a planned \u00a519 dividend increase to \u00a5205 annually.","jir_og_image_url":"\/assets\/og\/company-general_ir.jpg","jir_chart_data_collection":"[{\"jir_chart_id\": \"revenue_trend\", \"jir_chart_type\": \"bar\", \"jir_chart_title\": \"Comparison of Revenue (Million Yen)\", \"jir_chart_json_data\": \"{\\\"type\\\":\\\"bar\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"labels\\\":[\\\"Previous Fiscal Year (FY2025)\\\",\\\"Previous Forecast (FY2026)\\\",\\\"Revised Forecast (FY2026)\\\"],\\\"datasets\\\":[{\\\"label\\\":\\\"Revenue\\\",\\\"data\\\":[652993,688000,724000],\\\"backgroundColor\\\":\\\"#4e79a7\\\"}]},\\\"options\\\":{\\\"scales\\\":{\\\"y\\\":{\\\"beginAtZero\\\":true}}}}\"}, {\"jir_chart_id\": \"operating_profit_trend\", \"jir_chart_type\": \"bar\", \"jir_chart_title\": \"Comparison of Operating Income (Million Yen)\", \"jir_chart_json_data\": \"{\\\"type\\\":\\\"bar\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"labels\\\":[\\\"Previous Fiscal Year (FY2025)\\\",\\\"Previous Forecast (FY2026)\\\",\\\"Revised Forecast (FY2026)\\\"],\\\"datasets\\\":[{\\\"label\\\":\\\"Operating Income\\\",\\\"data\\\":[129660,130000,137000],\\\"backgroundColor\\\":\\\"#f28e2b\\\"}]},\\\"options\\\":{\\\"scales\\\":{\\\"y\\\":{\\\"beginAtZero\\\":true}}}}\"}, {\"jir_chart_id\": \"profit_before_tax_trend\", \"jir_chart_type\": \"bar\", \"jir_chart_title\": \"Comparison of Profit Before Tax (Million Yen)\", \"jir_chart_json_data\": \"{\\\"type\\\":\\\"bar\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"labels\\\":[\\\"Previous Fiscal Year (FY2025)\\\",\\\"Previous Forecast (FY2026)\\\",\\\"Revised Forecast (FY2026)\\\"],\\\"datasets\\\":[{\\\"label\\\":\\\"Profit Before Tax\\\",\\\"data\\\":[133313,129000,164000],\\\"backgroundColor\\\":\\\"#59a14f\\\"}]},\\\"options\\\":{\\\"scales\\\":{\\\"y\\\":{\\\"beginAtZero\\\":true}}}}\"}, {\"jir_chart_id\": \"net_profit_trend\", \"jir_chart_type\": \"bar\", \"jir_chart_title\": \"Comparison of Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent (Million Yen)\", \"jir_chart_json_data\": \"{\\\"type\\\":\\\"bar\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"labels\\\":[\\\"Previous Fiscal Year (FY2025)\\\",\\\"Previous Forecast (FY2026)\\\",\\\"Revised Forecast (FY2026)\\\"],\\\"datasets\\\":[{\\\"label\\\":\\\"Net Income\\\",\\\"data\\\":[92625,90000,116000],\\\"backgroundColor\\\":\\\"#e15759\\\"}]},\\\"options\\\":{\\\"scales\\\":{\\\"y\\\":{\\\"beginAtZero\\\":true}}}}\"}, {\"jir_chart_id\": \"dividend_trend\", \"jir_chart_type\": \"bar\", \"jir_chart_title\": \"Comparison of Annual Dividend (Yen)\", \"jir_chart_json_data\": \"{\\\"type\\\":\\\"bar\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"labels\\\":[\\\"Previous Fiscal Year (FY2025)\\\",\\\"Previous Forecast (FY2026)\\\",\\\"Revised Forecast (FY2026)\\\"],\\\"datasets\\\":[{\\\"label\\\":\\\"Annual Dividend\\\",\\\"data\\\":[178,186,205],\\\"backgroundColor\\\":\\\"#76b7b2\\\"}]},\\\"options\\\":{\\\"scales\\\":{\\\"y\\\":{\\\"beginAtZero\\\":true}}}}\"}]","ir_related_company":7474,"ir_release_date":"","ir_type":"","ir_is_new":false,"ir_document_url":"","jir_ir_type":"earnings_guidance","footnotes":""},"sector":[],"importance":[],"class_list":["post-35796","ir_release","type-ir_release","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.7 -
