LIXIL Group ( (JP:5938) ) has issued an update.
LIXIL Corporation reported consolidated revenue of ¥1,510.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, a slight year-on-year increase, with core earnings and operating profit both improving. Profit attributable to owners of the parent surged to ¥8.8 billion, reversing the prior year’s weak performance, while cash flows from operating activities strengthened and the equity ratio remained stable around the mid-30% range.
The company maintained an annual dividend of ¥90 per share and forecasts a significant rise in revenue to ¥1.6 trillion and operating profit to ¥45 billion for the fiscal year ending March 2027, implying a stronger earnings trajectory. Non-consolidated results also improved sharply, supported by higher dividend income from subsidiaries and gains on sales of investment securities, underscoring better capital efficiency and potentially more attractive returns for shareholders.
LIXIL’s stable balance sheet, with total consolidated assets of about ¥1.88 trillion and a solid equity base, provides a buffer as it targets higher profitability. The reaffirmation of its dividend policy alongside upgraded profit forecasts signals management’s confidence in sustained earnings growth and could enhance its standing among domestic and institutional investors focused on income and recovery plays.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:5938) stock is a Hold with a Yen1600.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on LIXIL Group stock, see the JP:5938 Stock Forecast page.
