(Note) We conducted a four-for-one stock split of our common shares, effective October 1, 2025. Basic earnings per share was calculated assuming that the stock split occurred at the beginning of the previous fiscal year.
Reasons for Revisions
We have revised our consolidated earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, as outlined above, as we expect earnings to surpass our full-year forecasts released on November 11, 2025, due to a favorable impact on inventories resulting from soaring aluminum ingot prices and other factors.
Revisions to Dividend Forecasts
UACJ considers the distribution of dividends to shareholders to be an important means of returning profits, and our basic policy is to maintain stable and consistent dividend payments. In addition, the Fourth Mid-term Management Plan for fiscal 2024 to 2027 targets a dividend payout ratio of 30% or more of profit attributable to owners of the parent.
We have revised our year-end dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, taking into account the revisions to the consolidated earnings forecasts for the same fiscal year released today.
Annual dividends | |||||
End-Q1 | End-Q2 | End-Q3 | Year-end | Total | |
Previously announced forecast | - | 80.00 yen | - | 22.00 yen | - |
Current forecast | - | 80.00 yen | - | 25.00 yen | - |
(Reference) Actual dividends for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 | - | 70.00 yen | - | 80.00 yen | 150.00 yen |
(Note) We conducted a four-for-one stock split of our common shares, effective October 1, 2025. The annual dividend forecast is not stated because a simple sum cannot be calculated due to the stock split. Without consideration of the stock split, the year-end dividend would be 100.00 yen per share, and the annual dividend would be 180.00 yen per share, for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 (based on the current forecast). The consolidated dividend payout ratio is projected to be 30.2%.
(Note) The earnings forecasts and certain other statements contained in this document are forward-looking statements that are rationally determined based on information available to the UACJ Group at the time the results were announced. Actual performance may differ substantially from these projections due to fluctuations in the economy or a variety of other known and unknown factors.
