Alps Alpine Co ( (JP:6770) ) has provided an announcement.

Alps Alpine reported a solid improvement in profitability for the nine months ended 31 December 2025, with net sales rising 2.8% year on year to ¥761.2 billion and operating profit jumping 31.5% to ¥33.3 billion. Ordinary profit surged 64.6% to ¥40.2 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent more than doubled to ¥24.0 billion, lifting basic earnings per share to ¥119.27. The company’s financial position also strengthened, with total assets increasing to ¥777.0 billion and the equity ratio edging up to 56.3%, while share buybacks reduced the number of shares outstanding and supported higher net assets per share.

For shareholders, Alps Alpine confirmed an interim dividend of ¥30.00 per share and raised its full-year dividend forecast to a total of ¥62.00 per share, signaling confidence in cash generation despite moderating earnings expectations for the full fiscal year. The company revised its full-year forecast to net sales of ¥1,010.0 billion and operating profit of ¥37.0 billion, implying modest top-line growth but a projected decline in full-year profit attributable to owners of parent to ¥21.0 billion compared with the strong nine-month performance. The combination of higher dividends, improved balance sheet metrics and robust year-to-date earnings underlines a focus on shareholder returns and financial discipline as the company navigates a slower growth environment.
