Dai-Dan hikes dividend and forecasts after strong performance, announces 3-for-1 split

Dai-Dan Co., Ltd. announced on November 7, 2025, a revision to its full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. While net sales remain at 260,000 million yen, operating profit is now projected to increase by 4,500 million yen to 28,000 million yen. This revision, driven by improved profitability and record-high orders, is expected to boost ordinary profit to 28,300 million yen and profit attributable to owners of parent to 20,500 million yen, exceeding initial forecasts.

In conjunction with the strong performance, Dai-Dan is implementing a 3-for-1 share split, effective January 1, 2026, to enhance investment accessibility and market liquidity. The company also announced a revised dividend forecast, increasing the year-end dividend before the split by 28 yen to 111 yen per common share, resulting in an annual dividend of 193 yen per share, up from 165 yen per share.

The company's mid-term management plan, "Refining Stage" (FY2024-FY2026), shows consolidated net sales reaching 262.7 billion yen in March 2025, surpassing the 250.0 billion yen target. Operating profit for March 2025 also significantly exceeded targets, reaching 23.0 billion yen against a 15.0 billion yen target. The revised operating profit forecast of 28.0 billion yen for March 2026 is a notable increase from the 23.5 billion yen initial target.
