An update from Yamaguchi Financial Group ( (JP:8418) ) is now available.
Yamaguchi Financial Group reported a 22.7% rise in consolidated ordinary income to ¥261.9 billion for the year ended March 31, 2026, but ordinary profit fell 14.1% and profit attributable to owners of the parent declined 6.6%. Despite weaker profitability metrics, comprehensive income swung sharply into positive territory, capital adequacy improved to 5.1%, and net assets per share rose, signaling a stronger balance sheet.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to ¥1.65 trillion amid negative operating cash flow, while investing cash outflows eased and financing activities turned more negative, reflecting balance sheet and funding adjustments. The group raised its annual dividend to ¥64 per share and projects a substantial rebound in FY2027 profits, with ordinary profit forecast to jump 49.9% and EPS to increase, underscoring management’s confidence even as one consolidated subsidiary, HOKEN HIROBA, LTD., was removed from the group scope.
