ORIENTAL LAND CO.,LTD. [4661.T]
TOKYO, Apr 28 (Pulse News Wire) – Oriental Land CO.,LTD. (4661.T) reported record revenue of ¥300 billion for the fiscal year ended March 2026 but fell short of profit expectations due to rising costs.
Operating profit declined despite higher per-guest spending, driven by increased expenses such as maintenance fees and personnel costs. Hotel operations saw record sales and profits thanks to higher room rates and occupancy, while theme park revenues hit an all-time high. However, ongoing maintenance work and reduced guest numbers led to lower hotel performance forecasts for the next fiscal year.
Other businesses also faced cost pressures, resulting in decreased profitability. For the upcoming fiscal year, the company expects continued growth in per-guest spending but anticipates reduced earnings due to various cost factors. Despite challenges, Oriental Land plans to enhance shareholder returns through dividend increases, projecting a ¥18.00 dividend per share for FY2027 compared to the initial estimate of ¥16.00.
