Hirose Electric Halts Share Buybacks in April but Retains Significant Authorization Capacity

HIROSE ELECTRIC CO ( (JP:6806) ) has provided an announcement.

HIROSE ELECTRIC CO., LTD. reported that it did not repurchase any of its common shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange during April 2026 under its ongoing board-approved share buyback program. The zero activity for the month comes despite an authorization, granted in December 2025, to buy back up to 1,000,000 shares, or about 3.03% of outstanding stock, for as much as ¥15 billion through the end of July 2026.

Cumulatively, as of April 30, 2026, the company has acquired 308,900 shares for a total of about ¥5.33 billion under this resolution. The inactivity in April suggests a tactical pause rather than an end to the program, leaving significant remaining capacity that could still be deployed to support capital efficiency, adjust capital structure, or signal confidence to shareholders over the rest of the authorization period.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:6806) stock is a Buy with a Yen26300.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on HIROSE ELECTRIC CO stock, see the JP:6806 Stock Forecast page.
