Ahresty Corporation Raises Net Profit Forecast and Dividend — FY2026 Update
Ahresty Corporation (TSE:5852), a die-casting manufacturer supplying the automotive industry, has revised its full-year earnings and dividend forecast for FY2026 (April 2025 – March 2026). Revenue and operating profit are unchanged, but net profit is revised upward significantly and the dividend is increased.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | ¥162.2bn | ¥162.2bn | — |
| Operating Profit | ¥3.6bn | ¥3.6bn | — |
| Ordinary Income | ¥2.2bn | ¥2.2bn | — |
| Net Profit | ¥2.3bn | ¥3.0bn | +¥700mn (+30.4%) |
| EPS | ¥92.74 | ¥120.29 | +¥27.55 |
| Annual Dividend (per share) | ¥32 | ¥42 | +¥10 (+31.3%) |
The revision reflects improved visibility into Q4 performance. The company had previously withheld a full-year forecast update due to uncertainty in its North American die-casting operations, exchange rate movements, and non-operating accounting treatment. With greater clarity now available, net profit is revised upward by ¥700mn to ¥3.0bn.
The dividend increase from ¥32 to ¥42 per share (interim: ¥16→¥26, year-end: ¥16 maintained) signals management’s confidence in cash generation and commitment to shareholder returns.
