Fuji Media Holdings Lifts Payout With Sharp Dividend Hike and Major Buyback Plan

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

Fuji Media Holdings will propose a sharply higher year-end dividend of ¥100 per share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, bringing the total annual payout to ¥125 per share, up from ¥50 the previous year. The total dividend amount will be about ¥14.5 billion, sourced from retained earnings, with final approval scheduled at the June 25, 2026 shareholders’ meeting.

The company is aligning this move with a capital policy that targets a 50% consolidated payout ratio and a minimum annual dividend of ¥50 per share, supported by recovering advertising revenue in its Media & Content segment. Alongside a large-scale share buyback of up to ¥235 billion and plans to bring in outside capital to its urban development and hotels & resort operations, Fuji Media aims to enhance financial flexibility, accelerate ROE improvement, and sustain higher dividends of ¥200 annually in fiscal 2027 and 2028 while keeping equity at a stable level.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:4676) stock is a Buy with a Yen4500.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Fuji Media Holdings stock, see the JP:4676 Stock Forecast page.
