Yakult Honsha Co ( (JP:2267) ) has issued an update.
Yakult Honsha reported consolidated net sales of ¥371.8 billion for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, down 3.8% year on year, with operating profit falling 19.3% to ¥40.9 billion and ordinary profit down 19.0% to ¥55.7 billion. Profit attributable to owners of the parent slipped 4.6% to ¥41.6 billion, while total assets rose to ¥881.3 billion and the equity ratio remained robust at 65.7%, indicating a solid financial base despite weaker earnings.
The company revised its dividend forecast for fiscal 2025, planning a higher year-end payout of ¥37 per share including a ¥4 commemorative dividend, bringing the annual dividend to ¥70 per share. It left its full-year earnings forecast unchanged, signaling management’s confidence in meeting current guidance even as sales and profits soften, a stance that may reassure shareholders but highlights ongoing margin pressures in its core business.
