Japan M&A hits limit-up on raised earnings and dividend forecasts for FY10/2026

Japan M&A Solution Incorporated <9236> hit its daily limit of 1,104 yen, surging after announcing after the close today an upward revision to its standalone forecast for the year ending October 2026.

The company raised its operating profit forecast to 178 million yen from 108 million yen, reversing a 56 million yen loss a year earlier, and net profit forecast to 143 million yen from 109 million yen, compared with an 85 million yen loss the previous year. Simultaneously, Japan M&A Solution lifted its year-end dividend forecast to 10 yen from zero, marking its first dividend since listing.

While its revenue forecast was left unchanged at 990 million yen (up 51.3% year-on-year), the revision was driven primarily by the successful closing of a large, high-margin deal in the first project of its fund business, which launched in earnest during the first half. Additional factors included the full-scale operation of its AI long-list creation system, developed under its growth investment strategy, which significantly improved in-house buyer search precision and substantially reduced external costs like referral fees previously paid to partner firms. Rigorous operational efficiency and cost controls also contributed to the upgrade.

Separately, Japan M&A Solution reported first-half results for the six months ended April. Revenue rose 41.2% year-on-year to 526 million yen, while operating profit reached 142 million yen, reversing a 17 million yen operating loss a year earlier, and net profit was 127 million yen, compared with an 8 million yen net loss a year earlier.
