Fast Retailing raises dividend after record performance

For the fiscal year ending August 31, 2025, Fast Retailing recorded consolidated revenue of JPY 3,400,539 million, an increase of 9.6% year-over-year, and a business profit of JPY 551,156 million, up 13.6%. Net profit attributable to owners of the parent company rose by 16.4% to JPY 433,009 million. This strong performance, marking four consecutive years of record results, was driven by global customer support for LifeWear.

The revised year-end dividend per share is JPY 260.00, an increase from the previously forecasted JPY 240.00. This brings the estimated total annual dividend per share to JPY 500.00, up from JPY 480.00.

Looking ahead to the fiscal year ending August 31, 2026, Fast Retailing forecasts continued growth with consolidated revenue projected at JPY 3,750,000 million (up 10.3%) and business profit at JPY 610,000 million (up 10.7%). Net profit attributable to owners of the parent company is expected to be JPY 435,000 million (up 0.5%).
