Koei Tecmo Holdings Co., Ltd. ( (JP:3635) ) has issued an update.

Koei Tecmo reported solid results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, with net sales rising 6.3% to ¥88.4 billion and operating profit up 15.7% to ¥37.2 billion, while profit attributable to owners of the parent climbed 13.8% to ¥42.8 billion. The company strengthened its balance sheet with total assets expanding to ¥313.7 billion and equity to ¥271.8 billion, raised its annual dividend to ¥66 per share for FY2026, but guided for modest sales growth and lower profits in FY2027, signaling a more cautious outlook despite robust current profitability.

Return on equity remained high at 18.6%, and the operating margin improved to 42%, underscoring strong earnings efficiency and cash generation. Cash and cash equivalents more than doubled to ¥59.3 billion driven by positive operating and financing cash flows, while a sharp reduction in treasury shares points to active capital policy, though the forecasted cut in next year’s dividend to ¥48 per share suggests management is bracing for a softer earnings phase.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:3635) stock is a Buy with a Yen2500.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Koei Tecmo Holdings Co., Ltd. stock, see the JP:3635 Stock Forecast page.
