The Hanshin Diesel Works, Ltd. (TSE:6018) has revised its earnings and dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, raising expectations for both net profit and dividends.
| Item | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 13,900M | JPY 14,028M | +0.9% |
| Operating Profit | JPY 700M | JPY 824M | +17.7% |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 750M | JPY 954M | +27.2% |
| Net Profit | JPY 530M | JPY 736M | +38.9% |
| EPS | JPY 16,356/share | JPY 22,712/share | +38.9% |
The company attributed the revision to improved performance in the final quarter, driven by strong demand for parts sales and a reduction in order loss provisions due to better contract pricing. Furthermore, higher interest income, dividend income, and foreign exchange gains contributed to the increase in ordinary income.
This revision reflects stronger-than-expected financial performance and signals the company’s commitment to shareholder returns through a higher dividend payout. Investors should note that Japan’s “ordinary income” (keijo rieki) includes non-operating items such as interest and dividend income, which can differ significantly from IFRS or US GAAP measures.
