Buyback keeps returns central

According to Markets Insider on October 1, 2026, Mitsui updated the progress of a repurchase authorized by its board on August 4, 2026. The program is valued at JPY 200.00 billion and is scheduled for completion by the end of January 2027.

The return program followed a strong opening quarter. Yahoo Finance published Mitsui management commentary from August 4, 2026 showing first-quarter profit of JPY 294.05 billion, up JPY 102.50 billion year over year. Core operating cash flow reached JPY 280.90 billion, an increase of JPY 64.60 billion from the same period.

What does the first quarter mean?

The earnings mix matters because management attributed part of the increase to asset recycling and valuation gains, rather than only recurring operations. Energy profit rose to JPY 34.40 billion in the first quarter, while Mobility, Digital and Infrastructure profit reached JPY 73.00 billion, according to the same August 4 earnings-call transcript.
