Yamaha Completes ¥15 Billion Share Buyback Under Board Authorization

Yamaha ( (JP:7951) ) has issued an announcement.

Yamaha Corporation has completed a share buyback program authorized by its board in November 2025, acquiring 2,322,500 common shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange between March 1 and March 24, 2026, for about ¥2.6 billion. This brings the total repurchased since the authorization to 13,488,300 shares at a cost of roughly ¥15.0 billion, signaling continued shareholder returns and potentially enhancing earnings per share and capital efficiency, which may support the stock’s valuation.
