ending March 2026 reached 204.5 billion yen, and net income attributable to owners of the parent company increased to 152.7 billion yen compared to the same period last year. The favorable performance of overseas energy businesses and upstream operations such as the Freeport LNG terminal in the U.S. contributed to the growth. ROIC is 5.8%, and ROE is 8.7%, indicating improved capital efficiency. Although domestic energy operations saw a decline due to lower gas sales prices based on the fuel cost adjustment system, overall, the medium-term management plan is progressing smoothly.\n\n### Shareholder Returns and Capital Policy\nThe dividend for the 27.3 fiscal year is planned at 130 yen\/share (up 10 yen from last year), with an increase based on the DOE policy of 3.5%. Additionally, a new share buyback program with a limit of 80 billion yen has been approved, covering the period from May 11, 2026, to March 31, 2027. This move aims to enhance capital efficiency and strengthen shareholder returns. It is positioned as a flexible, long-term cash return measure aimed at achieving higher ROE.","jir_financial_highlights":"Operating Income: 204.5 billion yen (Up 14.8 billion yen from last year)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 152.7 billion yen (Up 18.3 billion yen from last year)\nROIC: 5.8% (Up 0.4pt from last year)\nROE: 8.7% (Up 0.5pt from last year)\nDividend (per share): 130 yen\/share (Up 10 yen\/share from last year)\nShare Buyback Limit: 80 billion yen (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#OsakaGas, #FinancialResults, #JapanStocks","jir_key_figures":"Operating Income: 204.5 billion yen (up 14.8 billion yen YoY)\nNet Income attributable to owners of the parent: 152.7 billion yen (up 18.3 billion yen YoY)\nEarnings Forecast: 130 yen\/share (up 10 yen YoY)\nShare Buyback Cap: 80 billion yen (Period: May 11, 2026\u2013March 31, 2027)","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Osaka Gas\u3011Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 Financial Results\uff5cOperating Income 204.5 billion yen (up 14.8 billion yen YoY)","jir_meta_description":"Osaka Gas announces its fiscal year ending March 2026 financial results.
