The Toho Bank,Ltd. [8346.T]

TOKYO, Feb 10 (Pulse News Wire) -- The Toho Bank, Ltd. (8346.T), announced today that it has revised its fiscal year 2026 March term consolidated and individual performance forecasts as well as increased its dividend forecast for the same period. The revisions were made based on recent business trends and other factors.

The bank's latest forecast shows an improved outlook compared to the previous estimates released on November 7, 2025. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, the consolidated net income attributable to shareholders is now expected to be ¥11.2 billion, up by ¥1.9 billion from the earlier projection of ¥9.3 billion. This represents a significant increase of 20.4%. Similarly, earnings per share (EPS) have been raised from ¥37.22 to ¥44.83. The bank attributes these upward adjustments primarily to better-than-expected results in the third quarter due to higher interest income and reduced credit costs.

In addition to revising its earnings forecast, the Toho Bank also announced an enhanced dividend payout plan. Previously, the company had proposed interim dividends of ¥7 per share and final dividends of ¥14 per share, totaling ¥21 per share for the fiscal year 2026. However, after reviewing current business conditions and shareholder support, the bank decided to boost both interim and final dividends by ¥2 each, bringing the total annual dividend to ¥16 per share. This marks a substantial improvement over last year’s actual dividend of ¥9 per share, reflecting a commitment to enhancing returns for investors under its long-term strategy outlined in the “TX PLAN 2030.”

According to the press release, this decision was influenced by several considerations including the positive revision of the fiscal year 2026 performance expectations and ongoing support from shareholders. As a result, the projected dividend yield ratio stands at 35.6%, indicating a robust distribution policy aimed at rewarding shareholders while maintaining strong financial health. The bank emphasized that although these figures represent their best estimate based on currently available information, actual outcomes may vary due to unforeseen circumstances in the future.
