The automotive parts supplier maintained its revenue forecast at JPY 335.0bn following a review of first-quarter progress and market conditions. However, the company raised ordinary income (keijo rieki)—a Japan-specific metric encompassing operating profit plus non-operating items—by JPY 2.5bn to JPY 20.5bn, reflecting gains from ongoing cost-control and operational efficiency initiatives. Net profit attributable to parent shareholders climbed JPY 1.5bn to JPY 13.5bn, a 12.5% increase. Earnings per share rose to JPY 23555.00/share from JPY 20930.00/share.
The revision underscores improving profit margins despite flat top-line growth. Aisan also strengthened shareholder returns, raising its interim dividend by JPY 1.00/share to JPY 41.00 and its year-end dividend by JPY 2.00/share to JPY 42.00, for a full-year dividend of JPY 83.00/share—up JPY 3.00 from prior guidance. The dividend increase signals management confidence in sustained operational performance and reflects a commitment to enhanced capital allocation to shareholders.
