KDDI Delivers Steady Profit Growth and Confirms Higher EPS, Dividend Post-Split

KDDI ( (JP:9433) ) has shared an update.

KDDI reported solid year-on-year growth for the nine months to December 31, 2025, with operating revenue rising 3.8% to ¥4.47 trillion and operating income edging up 1.1% to ¥856.7 billion. Profit attributable to owners of the parent increased 5.1% to ¥545.5 billion, lifting basic earnings per share to ¥141.10 after reflecting a two-for-one stock split implemented in April 2025.

Total assets expanded to ¥18.36 trillion, although the equity ratio declined to 26.8% from 30.1%, partly reflecting active capital measures including share buybacks that reduced shares outstanding. The board maintained its dividend stance post-split, confirming a full-year payout forecast of ¥80 per share and slightly upgrading its full-year earnings outlook, signaling steady cash generation and shareholder returns despite modest profit margin expansion.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:9433) stock is a Hold with a Yen2918.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on KDDI stock, see the JP:9433 Stock Forecast page.
