Rigaku Holdings reported fiscal 2025 revenue of ¥94.2 billion, up 3.9% year on year, but operating profit fell 9.0% to ¥16.7 billion and net profit dropped 16.3% to ¥11.4 billion as margins tightened despite top-line growth. Return on equity declined to 13.4% and operating cash flow eased, yet total assets and equity rose, and the company lifted its annual dividend to ¥18.8 per share, signaling confidence while returning more cash to shareholders.

If achieved, these targets would mark a recovery in profitability and support a modest further dividend increase, underscoring management’s expectation of improved operations and sustained shareholder returns.
