The latest announcement is out from UACJ ( (JP:5741) ).
UACJ has raised its consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, projecting revenue of ¥1.14 trillion and operating income of ¥66 billion, citing better-than-expected performance. The company attributes the upgrade mainly to favorable inventory effects from surging aluminum ingot prices, which are expected to lift profit attributable to owners of the parent and increase basic earnings per share.
In tandem with the stronger outlook, UACJ revised its year-end dividend forecast to ¥25 per share after a recent four-for-one stock split, implying an undiscounted year-end dividend of ¥100 and an annual payout of ¥180. This move keeps the projected consolidated dividend payout ratio at about 30.2%, underscoring management’s policy of stable, consistent dividends and signaling improved returns for shareholders on the back of robust aluminum market conditions.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:5741) stock is a Hold with a Yen2830.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on UACJ stock, see the JP:5741 Stock Forecast page.
