An update from Kiyo Bank ( (JP:8370) ) is now available.
Kiyo Bank has raised its consolidated earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, citing stronger-than-expected interest income from loans and securities and lower credit costs. The bank now projects higher ordinary income, ordinary profit and profit attributable to owners of parent, with basic earnings per share also set to climb sharply from both its earlier guidance and the previous year.
Non-consolidated projections have likewise been revised upward, reflecting the same favorable trends in core banking operations and risk costs. In tandem, the bank lifted its year-end dividend forecast from 58 yen to 79 yen per share, resulting in an expected annual dividend of 137 yen, as it pursues a shareholder return policy of progressive dividends aligned with earnings growth and a targeted payout ratio of 40%.
