Hazama Ando ( (JP:1719) ) has issued an announcement.

Hazama Ando Corporation will sell part of its listed investment securities as it continues to reduce strategic shareholdings, booking an estimated gain on sale of around ¥10 billion as extraordinary income. This portfolio move reflects management’s ongoing capital efficiency efforts and is expected to support profitability while the core construction business remains the company’s main earnings driver.

On the back of this gain and stronger-than-expected margins in building construction, Hazama Ando has raised its full-year consolidated forecasts for the year to March 31, 2026, lifting projected net sales to ¥438 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent to ¥28.4 billion. The company also upgraded non-consolidated guidance and orders outlook, kept its year-end dividend plan unchanged, and flagged about ¥6.2 billion in additional repair costs tied to a seawall construction incident, saying any further material impact will be disclosed when the repair plan is finalized.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:1719) stock is a Buy with a Yen2424.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Hazama Ando stock, see the JP:1719 Stock Forecast page.
