Japan Post Bank Co ( (JP:7182) ) has issued an update.
Japan Post Bank has approved a market-based share repurchase program of up to 7,088,300 common shares, representing about 0.2% of its outstanding shares (excluding treasury stock), with a maximum outlay of approximately ¥15.0 billion between January 5 and March 24, 2026, executed via discretionary transactions on the open market. This buyback is part of a broader repurchase framework of up to 23 million shares and ¥30 billion authorized on December 23, 2025, and follows an earlier off-auction repurchase of about ¥15.0 billion completed on December 24, 2025; the company notes that the actual amount repurchased may be significantly lower to keep Japan Post Holdings’ voting rights at or below 50%, and that the plan could be curtailed if market turmoil undermines its distributable reserves, highlighting a cautious capital management stance aimed at shareholder returns while preserving financial stability.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:7182) stock is a Hold with a Yen1875.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Japan Post Bank Co stock, see the JP:7182 Stock Forecast page.
