The latest update is out from NIKKON Holdings Co ( (JP:9072) ).

NIKKON Holdings has revised its shareholder returns policy, raising its dividend-on-equity target from 4% to 6% or higher while maintaining a progressive dividend approach to provide more stable, long-term returns. The company aims to enhance capital efficiency by actively using debt for capital and growth investments, such as M&A, and will continue flexible share buybacks.

As part of the new framework, NIKKON plans to implement share repurchases totaling 35.0 billion yen during its 14th Medium-Term Business Plan period from April 1, 2026 to March 31, 2029. This decision, building on a previously announced 40.0 billion yen buyback program, underscores a stronger commitment to returning capital to shareholders and narrowing the gap between its current ROIC of around 4.5% and WACC of about 5.0%.
