NEC ( (JP:6701) ) has provided an update.
NEC Corporation’s board has approved a year-end dividend of 22 yen per share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, with total payments amounting to 29,227 million yen sourced from retained earnings. The payout marks a sharp reduction from the prior year’s 70 yen year-end dividend, reflecting a more conservative capital return stance following a share split implemented in April 2025.
For fiscal 2025, NEC’s annual dividend will total 38 yen per share, down from 140 yen the previous year, and the company is forecasting a further cut to 20 yen for fiscal 2026. The revised dividend trajectory signals tighter shareholder returns amid shifting financial priorities, which may affect income-focused investors even as NEC recalibrates its balance between growth investment and distributions.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:6701) stock is a Buy with a Yen5200.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on NEC stock, see the JP:6701 Stock Forecast page.
