Dowa Holdings Projects Higher Dividend Backed by Record Profits and Stake Sale Proceeds Dowa Holdings lifted its 2026 annual dividend forecast to ¥368 per share, supported in part by proceeds from a partial sale of its stake in Fujita Kanko Inc.
The higher dividend follows record fiscal 2025 profits, supported by metal prices and demand related to AI servers.
The company also announced a larger dividend and a share buyback plan alongside improved profitability in electronic materials and sales to information and communication sectors.
The combination of record profits, a higher dividend forecast and share buybacks points to a period where management is prioritising shareholder returns funded by both operating performance and asset sales.
Investors may want to consider how much of the recent strength is tied to metal price levels and AI-related demand, as a change in either could affect earnings and the sustainability of current capital return policies. Reported Earnings • May 16
