First-corporation Inc. (TSE:1430) revised its earnings and dividend forecast for the 2026 fiscal year, raising its full-year dividend to 46 yen per share.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 40.0bn | JPY 36.3bn | -9.2% |
| Operating Profit | JPY 2.80bn | JPY 2.90bn | +3.6% |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 2.53bn | JPY 2.70bn | +6.7% |
| Net Profit | JPY 1.75bn | JPY 1.84bn | +5.1% |
| EPS | JPY 146.42/share | JPY 153.39/share | +JPY 6.97/share |
The revision reflects improved margins in construction projects and increased contract signings in real estate, which boosted operating profit, ordinary income, and net profit. However, lower-than-expected real estate sales due to fewer high-margin deals led to a decline in revenue. Furthermore, the company increased its year-end dividend by 2 yen, signaling stronger cash flow and confidence in future performance.
The upward revision suggests First-corporation Inc. is benefiting from operational improvements in key sectors, which could support earnings growth. The dividend increase may enhance investor sentiment, particularly among income-focused investors.
