Oita Bank raises profit and dividend targets for FY2026

On November 10, 2025, Oita Bank announced a significant revision to its Medium-Term Management Plan 2024, raising key financial targets for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. Consolidated profit attributable to owners of the parent is now projected to exceed JPY 10.0 bn, up from JPY 8.0 bn. Consolidated ROE is expected to surpass 5.0%, an increase from around 4.0%, while the non-consolidated OHR target has been reduced to around 65% from 70%. These revisions reflect the current higher domestic interest rate market and anticipated continued rate increases, along with steady progress in the existing plan.

In conjunction with the revised targets, Oita Bank also announced an increased dividend. The interim dividend for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, will be JPY 85.00 per share, up from the previously forecasted JPY 75.00. The year-end dividend forecast has also been raised to JPY 85.00 per share, resulting in a total annual dividend of JPY 170.00 per share, an increase of JPY 20.00 from the initial forecast.

The bank's consolidated financial results for the six months ended September 30, 2025, show ordinary income increased by JPY 5,750m year-on-year to JPY 44,601m, with profit attributable to owners of parent rising by JPY 717m to JPY 4,431m. The financial forecast for FY2025 has been adjusted upward, with consolidated ordinary income now projected at JPY 87,200m and profit attributable to owners of parent at JPY 9,200m.
