SAIBU GAS HOLDINGS CO. LTD. ( (JP:9536) ) has issued an announcement.
Saibu Gas Holdings reported consolidated net sales of ¥261.8 billion for the year ended March 31, 2026, up 2.9% year on year, with operating profit rising 18.4% to ¥12.5 billion and profit attributable to owners of the parent climbing 12.3% to ¥7.1 billion. Earnings per share increased to ¥196.20, equity and total assets both expanded, and the equity ratio improved, reflecting stronger financial footing despite a decline in operating cash flow compared with the prior year.
The company will maintain its annual dividend at ¥70 per share, implying a lower payout ratio as profits grow, and has significantly increased treasury shares outstanding, partly tied to a performance-linked stock-based remuneration plan. For fiscal 2027, Saibu Gas forecasts a modest decline in net sales and operating profit but expects higher net profit and EPS, signaling continued shareholder returns even as it navigates a softer top line and mixed non-consolidated results marked by sharply lower parent-only ordinary profit and net income.
