UACJ raises full-year net profit and dividend forecasts

UACJ Corporation revised its consolidated earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. The company increased projected revenue from ¥1,040,000m to ¥1,100,000m, operating income from ¥45,000m to ¥55,000m, and profit attributable to owners of parent from ¥20,000m to ¥23,000m. This adjustment is primarily due to a positive impact on inventories from soaring aluminum ingot prices and other factors.

In line with the revised earnings, UACJ also updated its dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, to ¥42.0 per share, up from ¥40.0 per share. This reflects the company's commitment to a stable dividend payout, targeting 30% or more of profit attributable to owners of parent under its Fourth Mid-term Management Plan.

Additionally, a four-for-one stock split of common shares became effective on October 1, 2025. Basic earnings per share for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, are now projected at ¥127.03, up from ¥110.46, calculated assuming the stock split occurred at the beginning of the previous fiscal year.
