Isuzu Logs Higher Revenue but Lower Profit as Share Buybacks Lift EPS

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

The latest announcement is out from Isuzu Motors ( (JP:7202) ).

Isuzu Motors reported consolidated revenue of ¥2.51 trillion for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, up 5.3% year-on-year, while operating profit fell 12.4% to ¥172.5 billion as profitability came under pressure despite higher sales. Profit attributable to owners of the parent dipped 1.1% to ¥121.2 billion, but basic earnings per share rose to ¥172.67, aided in part by an ongoing share repurchase program that has sharply increased treasury stock.

The company maintained a solid balance sheet with total assets of ¥3.55 trillion and an equity ratio of 41.0%, and confirmed there are no changes to its full-year FY2026 forecast, which calls for modest 2.0% revenue growth but declines in profit metrics. Isuzu plans to keep total annual dividends at ¥92 per share, signaling a continued focus on shareholder returns even as it anticipates lower operating and pre-tax profits for the full year.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:7202) stock is a Buy with a Yen3058.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Isuzu Motors stock, see the JP:7202 Stock Forecast page.
