National Guarantee Co., Ltd. Raises Earnings & Dividend — JPY 32.0bn Net Profit
National Guarantee Co., Ltd. (TSE:71640) revised its earnings and dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, raising its full-year net profit and year-end dividend.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 59.2bn | JPY 58.5bn | ▲JPY 0.7bn (▲1.2%) |
| Operating Profit | JPY 41.6bn | JPY 41.1bn | ▲JPY 0.5bn (▲1.2%) |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 45.1bn | JPY 46.0bn | +JPY 0.9bn (2.0%) |
| Net Profit | JPY 31.2bn | JPY 32.0bn | +JPY 0.8bn (2.6%) |
| EPS | JPY 233.77 per share | JPY 238.63 per share | +JPY 4.86 per share (+2.1%) |
| Year-end Dividend | JPY 70.00 per share | JPY 75.00 per share | +JPY 5.00 per share (7.1%) |
The company cited lower-than-expected insurance-related revenue from its housing loan guarantee business as the reason for the decline in revenue, but noted that lower-than-anticipated operating expenses and increased gains from securities investments helped maintain ordinary income at the original forecast. The acquisition of shares in Intellix Holdings Co., Ltd. is expected to add to operating profit through investment income.
The revision reflects management’s confidence in exceeding the full-year earnings forecast, which has led to an increase in the year-end dividend. This decision underscores the company’s commitment to maintaining a strong financial foundation and ensuring stable dividend payments.
