Fujikura to Book Net Tax Gain from European Unit Liquidation and Dividend Policy Shift

Fujikura Ltd ( (JP:5803) ) just unveiled an update.

Fujikura Ltd. has resolved to liquidate its consolidated subsidiary Fujikura Europe (Holding) B.V., the intermediate holding company for its European automotive manufacturing base, to clarify investment relationships and reduce costs. As a result, it expects to recognize deferred tax assets of ¥10.5 billion in its non-consolidated and consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, reflecting tax savings from realizing a tax loss on this investment already booked in prior years.

In parallel, Fujikura is revising its dividend policy from consolidated subsidiaries to centralize group funds at the parent company, aiming to improve cash management and enhance overall group value amid rapid overseas business expansion. This change is expected to generate deferred tax liabilities of ¥7.7 billion related to future taxation on subsidiaries’ retained earnings, with the net impact on profit attributable to owners of parent estimated at ¥2.8 billion and described as having a minimal effect on the company’s consolidated earnings forecast for fiscal 2025.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:5803) stock is a Hold with a Yen24732.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Fujikura Ltd stock, see the JP:5803 Stock Forecast page.
