Fast Retailing raises guidance after record JPY426B first-three-quarter profit
Fast Retailing reported first-three-quarter net profit of JPY426 billion, up 25.6% YoY, and raised its full-year guidance.
"The strong performance reflects strong consumer demand and operational efficiency," the company said in its earnings statement.
Consolidated revenue reached JPY3.0651 trillion, up 17.1% YoY, while operating profit rose 33.6% to JPY592.7 billion — both also record highs for the period. The company raised its full-year revenue forecast to JPY3.97 trillion, up 16.7% YoY, and net profit to JPY500 billion, up 15.5%. The revisions added JPY70 billion and JPY20 billion respectively from prior guidance, citing actual performance through June and recent yen exchange rate trends.
The company maintained its full-year dividend forecast at JPY640 per share, comprising an interim dividend of JPY320 already paid and a projected final dividend of JPY320. That represents an increase of JPY140, or about 28%, from FY2025.
Fast Retailing shares rose 1.3% in Hong Kong trading following the announcement.
The guidance raise shows management expects Uniqlo's growth momentum to continue across its global markets. Investors will watch the full-year results for segment-level margin details and the impact of currency movements on overseas revenue.
