Keio Lifts Revenue and Dividend but Flags Flat Earnings After Stock Split

The latest announcement is out from Keio ( (JP:9008) ).

Keio Corporation reported a 9.7% rise in operating revenue to ¥496.9 billion for the year ended March 31, 2026, but operating and ordinary profit dipped by low single digits as margins narrowed, leaving profit attributable to owners of parent essentially flat at ¥42.9 billion. Total assets and net assets both increased, cash flow from operations strengthened, and the equity ratio edged up, underscoring a solid balance sheet despite profitability pressure.

The company raised its annual dividend to ¥110 per share for FY2026 and, after a 5-for-1 stock split effective April 1, 2026, is guiding to a post‑split dividend equivalent to ¥22 per share and essentially flat earnings for FY2027, with modest revenue growth but lower projected ordinary profit. Share count and treasury share movements, along with a minor change in consolidation scope and accounting estimates, indicate continued capital management efforts as Keio balances shareholder returns with investment and a cautious earnings outlook.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:9008) stock is a Buy with a Yen4600.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Keio stock, see the JP:9008 Stock Forecast page.
