Startia Lifts FY2026 Profit and Dividend Forecasts on Strong Recurring Revenue

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Startia Holdings,Inc. ( (JP:3393) ) has issued an announcement.

Startia Holdings revised its full-year FY2026 guidance, now forecasting slightly lower net sales of ¥23.6 billion but higher operating, ordinary and net profits than previously expected, driven by strong demand in its IT infrastructure-related business. Robust sales of network equipment on the back of heightened security needs and growing recurring revenue from services such as electricity retailing, Hikari Collaboration and Biz-Suke are supporting the profit upgrade.

In its DX solution-related business, steady orders for Cloud CIRCUS tools, including the Fullstar digital guide and IZANAI AI chatbot, have lifted monthly recurring revenue and earnings, prompting the company to lift profit forecasts versus the prior year and earlier guidance. Reflecting the stronger performance and its policy of progressive shareholder returns with a target payout ratio of 55%, Startia also raised its forecast year-end dividend to ¥81 per share, lifting the total annual dividend to ¥135 and signaling increased returns to shareholders alongside earnings growth.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:3393) stock is a Buy with a Yen3242.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Startia Holdings,Inc. stock, see the JP:3393 Stock Forecast page.
