Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Reports Steady Growth

Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group ( (MBFJF) ) has released its Q2 earnings. Here is a breakdown of the information Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group presented to its investors.

Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (MUFG) is a leading financial services company based in Japan, engaged in a wide range of financial businesses including banking, trust banking, securities, and credit card/loan services. It is listed on the Tokyo, Nagoya, and New York stock exchanges.

In its latest earnings report for the six months ending September 30, 2025, MUFG reported a slight increase in ordinary income to 6,893,775 million yen, marking a 0.5% rise compared to the same period last year. However, ordinary profits saw a slight decline of 0.6% to 1,746,675 million yen, while profits attributable to owners of the parent increased by 2.8% to 1,292,955 million yen.

Key financial highlights include a modest growth in ordinary income, driven by increased fees and commissions, which rose by 92,442 million yen. Despite a decrease in net interest income by 68,551 million yen, the company managed to improve its profits attributable to owners of the parent, thanks to a reduction in credit costs and gains from equity method investees. The equity-to-asset ratio also improved slightly to 5.2% from 5.0% in March 2025.

The company announced a revised dividend forecast, with an increase in the total dividend per share from 64 yen to 74 yen for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. This reflects MUFG’s commitment to returning value to shareholders despite the challenging economic environment.

Looking ahead, MUFG has set an earnings target of 2,100 billion yen in profits attributable to owners of the parent for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.
