Japan Transcity Lifts Profit and Dividend Forecasts Despite Softer Revenue

Japan Transcity Corporation ( (JP:9310) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Japan Transcity revised its full-year forecast for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, projecting slightly lower consolidated operating revenue of ¥125.51 billion but higher profitability, with operating income, ordinary profit, and net income all expected to exceed earlier estimates. The company cited somewhat sluggish domestic cargo handling in the fourth quarter, offset by lower one-time expenses, resulting in an 8.0% upward revision to net income and a higher earnings per share figure compared with both the previous forecast and the prior year.

Reflecting the stronger earnings outlook, Japan Transcity raised its year-end dividend forecast to ¥24.50 per share, lifting the expected annual dividend to ¥43.00 from the previously planned ¥39.00. Management said the revision aligns with its policy of maintaining a payout ratio of 40% or a DOE of 2.0%, whichever is higher, signaling continued commitment to shareholder returns despite softer top-line growth in its domestic logistics business.
