The travel operator maintained its revenue forecast at JPY 34.0bn but significantly upgraded operating profit (after impairment charges) to JPY 3.00bn from JPY 1.50bn—a 100% increase. Net profit attributable to parent company shareholders surged to JPY 1.95bn from JPY 600M, while earnings per share jumped to JPY 88.22 from JPY 26.34. The company also introduced operating profit before impairment charges as a key metric, now disclosed at JPY 4.53bn.
Management attributed the revision to robust performance in inbound tourism, IT development, and investment operations, which offset slower growth and intensifying competition in its core travel business. The company reassessed prior assumptions regarding growth investments, M&A activity, and potential impairment charges based on current progress and revised outlooks.
The revision underscores AirTrip’s successful diversification strategy and improved profitability trajectory. Under a 100% dividend payout policy, the company plans to increase its year-end dividend substantially to JPY 160/share, signaling confidence in sustained earnings power and a commitment to shareholder returns.
