income for the fiscal year ending March 2026 is revised upward to 35 billion yen (+12.9% vs. previous forecast), and net income attributable to owners of parent is revised upward to 34 billion yen (+36.0% vs. previous forecast), with dividends increased to an annual 60 yen (+16 yen vs. previous forecast).","jir_summary":"### Regarding Revision of Earnings Guidance\nThe consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2026 has been revised upward, with operating income now projected at 35 billion yen (an increase of 4 billion yen from the previous forecast of 31 billion yen, up 12.9%), and net income attributable to owners of parent revised to 34 billion yen (an increase of 9 billion yen from the previous forecast of 25 billion yen, up 36.0%). Non-consolidated results have been similarly revised to operating income of 34 billion yen and net income of 33.5 billion yen, both exceeding previous forecasts.\n\n### Expected Variance from Previous Term Results and Reasons for Revision\nConsolidated ordinary income is expected to be 109.5 billion yen (a 20.2% increase year-over-year), and non-consolidated ordinary income is projected at 100.5 billion yen (a 20.8% increase year-over-year). The main factors driving the revision include steady progress in the loan business, expense reductions, improvements in asset quality, decreased credit costs, and additional recognition of deferred tax assets. Reduced tax expenses have also contributed to the increase in net income.\n\n### Regarding Revision of Dividend Forecast\nBased on the basic policy of shareholder returns, the year-end dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026 has been increased to 38 yen per share, resulting in an annual dividend of 60 yen (up from the previous 44 yen). This is expected to strengthen returns to investors.","jir_financial_highlights":"Operating Income (Consolidated): 35 billion yen (+12.9% vs. previous forecast)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent (Consolidated): 34 billion yen (+36.0% vs. previous forecast)\nNet Income per Share (Consolidated): 194.39 yen (Increase from previous forecast of 143.05 yen)\nOperating Income (Non-consolidated): 34 billion yen (+11.5% vs. previous forecast)\nNet Income (Non-consolidated): 33.5 billion yen (+34.0% vs. previous forecast)\nNet Income per Share (Non-consolidated): 191.53 yen (Increase from previous forecast of 143.05 yen)\nAnnual Dividend per Share: 60.0 yen (Increased by 16.0 yen from previous forecast of 44.0 yen)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#SurugaBank, #EarningsGuidanceRevision, #DividendIncrease, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Consolidated Operating Income: 35 billion yen (+12.9% vs. previous forecast)\nConsolidated Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 34 billion yen (+36.0% vs. previous forecast)\nAnnual Dividend: 60 yen (increased by 16 yen from previous forecast of 44 yen)","jir_meta_title":"[Suruga Bank] Upward Revision of Earnings Guidance for Fiscal Year Ending March 2026\uff5cNet Income 34 Billion Yen (+36%), Dividend Increased to 60 Yen","jir_meta_description":"Suruga Bank revises upward its operating income to 35 billion yen and net income to 34 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 2026, with annual dividends increased to 60 yen.
