The expansion of demand for data-center related server package boards and high-layered substrates, driven mainly overseas, and increased production capacity to meet demand were the main factors. A weaker yen also contributed. The full-year forecast has been revised accordingly.\n\n### Shareholder Returns and Outlook\nInterim dividend is revised to 75 yen, with the full-year dividend forecast also set at 150 yen (75 yen for the interim and 75 yen for the year-end). Based on a policy that prioritizes balancing shareholder return, growth investment, and financial stability, dividends are determined by considering consolidated earnings and free cash flow. We will continue to monitor demand trends and exchange rates and pursue appropriate capital allocation.","jir_financial_highlights":"Sales: 56,100 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (Previous forecast 56,100 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 \u2192 Actual 27,055 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (comparison with the Q2 forecast is in a separate section))\nOperating Profit: 16,800 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (Previous forecast 13,000 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 \u2192 Revised to 16,800 \u767e\u4e07\u5186)\nOrdinary Profit: 17,400 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (Previous forecast 13,000 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 \u2192 Revised to 17,400 \u767e\u4e07\u5186)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 12,300 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (Previous forecast 9,500 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 \u2192 Revised to 12,300 \u767e\u4e07\u5186)\nEarnings per Share: 631.30 \u5186 (Previous forecast 504.29 \u5186 \u2192 Revised to 631.30 \u5186)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#UnionTool, #DividendRevision, #EarningsRevision","jir_key_figures":"Sales: 56,100 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (Full-year new forecast)\nOperating Profit: 16,800 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (Full-year new forecast)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 12,300 \u767e\u4e07\u5186 (Full-year new forecast)","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Union Tool\u3011Notice of Earnings Forecast Differences and Dividend Revisions | Fiscal Year Ending December 2026","jir_meta_description":"Union Tool announces differences between the interim and actual results for the fiscal year 2026 and revises the full-year forecast and interim\/year-end dividends.
