千葉興業銀行 raised its consolidated ordinary profit forecast for the first half of the current fiscal year after the market close on 27 October, indicating that it was on track to post a record profit. The full-year ordinary profit forecast remains unchanged from the previous forecast.
千葉興業銀行 raised its consolidated ordinary profit forecast for the six months through September (the second quarter cumulative period) of the fiscal year ending March 2027 from the previous forecast of ¥6.9 billion to ¥8.5 billion. This strengthened expectations that first-half profit would reach a record high.
Under the new assumptions, first-half ordinary profit is projected to increase approximately 23.2% year on year, while the full-year ordinary profit forecast remains unchanged. The company cited expectations that net interest income and income from fees and commissions would exceed the initial forecasts, while credit costs would come in below expectations.
As part of its earnings forecast for the current fiscal year, the company released figures reflecting the first-half revision, while leaving its full-year ordinary profit forecast unchanged at ¥14.6 billion. The earnings materials also included supplementary information on the interim closing date and the timing of disclosures during the fiscal year, with the company indicating that it would monitor developments.
The revision was reported by Kabutan News. Further information and the timing of quarterly earnings disclosures remain subject to future announcements.
