Fuji Media Holdings ( (JP:4676) ) has provided an announcement.

Fuji Media Holdings has overhauled its shareholder return policy, deciding to substantially increase dividends alongside its previously announced large-scale share repurchase program of up to ¥250 billion by fiscal 2029. Citing a steady recovery in advertising revenue, improved business performance, plans to keep shareholders’ equity at a level that supports higher ROE, and the expected financial flexibility from bringing in outside capital to its Urban Development, Hotels & Resort Business, the company has set a significantly higher annual dividend of ¥200 per share for the fiscal years ending March 2027 and March 2028, and raised its dividend forecast for the year ending March 2026 from ¥50 to ¥125 per share, including a revised year-end dividend of ¥100. This marks a shift toward more aggressive capital returns and signals management’s confidence in earnings visibility and balance sheet strength, with clear implications for enhanced cash returns to shareholders over the next three years.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:4676) stock is a Hold with a Yen3974.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Fuji Media Holdings stock, see the JP:4676 Stock Forecast page.
