ASAHI YUKIZAI CORPORATION ( (JP:4216) ) has issued an update.

Asahi Yukizai Corporation reported a decline in earnings for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, with net sales down 5.5% year on year to ¥59.7 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent falling 33.7% to ¥4.0 billion, driven by lower operating and ordinary profit margins. Despite weaker profits, the balance sheet remained solid, with total assets rising to ¥108.4 billion, an equity ratio of 72.4% and net assets per share slightly higher than at the previous fiscal year-end, underscoring continued financial stability. The company reaffirmed a shareholder-friendly stance, maintaining its plan to increase the annual dividend for the year ending March 31, 2026 to ¥120 per share, up from ¥110, and revised its full-year earnings forecast, now projecting lower net sales but significant year-on-year declines in profit, which may weigh on investor sentiment even as the robust equity base and higher dividends offer some support.
