Dawn Corp <2303> rose as much as 5%, hitting a fresh year-to-date high. Around 2:00 p.m. today, the company announced that its standalone operating profit for the third quarter cumulative period (June 2025?February 2026) of the fiscal year ending May 2026 increased 16.2% YoY to \412 million. The positive market reaction also appears to reflect the company's decision to raise its year-end dividend by \2 from the initial plan to \28 (vs. \24 in the prior fiscal year).

Standalone sales for the third quarter cumulative period reached \1.09 billion, up 3.5% YoY. Results were supported by steady growth in cloud service fees ? a recurring revenue stream ? as well as new and renewal orders for license sales, primarily in the fire and disaster prevention sector. The company left its full-year earnings forecast unchanged, projecting sales of \1.7 billion (up 3.3% YoY) and operating profit of \610 million (up 6.3% YoY).
