DaikyoNishikawa Corp. ( (JP:4246) ) has provided an update.

DaikyoNishikawa reported fiscal year 2026 consolidated net sales of ¥165.7 billion, down 1.7% year on year, but boosted operating profit to ¥10.25 billion and lifted profit attributable to owners of the parent by 33.3% to ¥8.66 billion, resulting in higher earnings per share and improved cash generation. The company strengthened shareholder returns by raising the annual dividend from ¥36 to ¥52 per share and forecasting a further increase to ¥57 in the next fiscal year, while guiding for slightly lower sales and operating profit in FY2027 but higher full-year profit, supported by ongoing share buybacks and a solid equity base.

Total assets rose to ¥158.6 billion and equity per share increased, reflecting balance sheet reinforcement alongside robust operating cash flows that lifted cash and cash equivalents to ¥34.0 billion. While DaikyoNishikawa expects modest revenue and profit pressure in the first half and at the operating level next year, its dividend policy, treasury stock acquisitions, and maintained profitability signal management’s confidence and could support shareholder value despite a cautious earnings outlook.
