An update from Nissin Foods Holdings Co ( (JP:2897) ) is now available.
Nissin Foods reported fiscal year 3/2026 revenue of ¥788.1 billion, up 1.5% year on year, while core operating profit from existing businesses fell 15.5% to ¥70.6 billion, though it still beat guidance. Domestic profit was pressured by higher material costs despite price hikes and anniversary initiatives that lifted volume share, and overseas results were held back by a revenue drop in the U.S., where recovering volumes and prices have yet to fully offset prior weakness.
Despite lower profit, Nissin maintained its annual dividend at ¥70 per share under its progressive dividend policy and, combined with a ¥20 billion share buyback, delivered a total payout ratio of 88.4%. Looking ahead to FY3/2027, the company expects core operating profit in existing businesses to have bottomed and to return to mid-single-digit growth, driven by domestic value-added products, U.S. distribution recovery, premium launches and a new plant, while it accelerates its “winning model” overseas, focuses on Japanese-style noodles, selectively invests in domestic capacity and resets its ROE target to a more realistic level; potential impacts from the Middle East conflict are treated only as reference scenarios due to uncertainty.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:2897) stock is a Hold with a Yen2850.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Nissin Foods Holdings Co stock, see the JP:2897 Stock Forecast page.
