Mitsui & Co (ISIN JP3893600001) updated its share repurchase progress on October 1, 2026, while an analyst update dated September 9, 2026, raised the target from JPY 7,600.00 to JPY 8,493.99. Mitsui & Co listed the repurchase progress among its latest investor-relations announcements, while Simply Wall St carried the target revision.

Buyback reaches the latest milestone

The program covers up to 60,000,000 shares, or 2.11 percent of issued capital, with a maximum expenditure of JPY 200.0 billion. The authorization runs through January 29, 2027, and the shares are intended for cancellation, according to Simply Wall St on September 9, 2026.

The scale matters because the authorized share count reduction is paired with a stated cancellation plan rather than a short-term trading allocation. Mitsui also gave full-year fiscal 2027 profit guidance of JPY 920.0 billion and dividend guidance of JPY 70.00 per share for the second-quarter and year-end payments, as reported by Simply Wall St.

What do the latest results add?

Mitsui's first-quarter fiscal 2027 profit attributable to owners of the parent reached JPY 294.1 billion, up 53.4 percent from the prior-year period, according to a September 12, 2026 analysis published by Note. The analysis also cautioned that asset-revaluation gains contributed to the result, making the comparison less representative of recurring operating performance.

Three dates map the story

On August 4, 2026, Mitsui reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 profit of JPY 294.1 billion. On September 30, 2026, its Three W Solar project in Texas moved into full operation, while Mitsui's quoted Tokyo price in the related report was JPY 4,930.00, according to Yahoo Finance. On October 1, 2026, Mitsui published its repurchase progress update covering the JPY 200.0 billion authorization.

Key dates for shareholders

Mitsui's next results announcement for the six-month period ended September 30, 2026, is scheduled for November 4, 2026, at noon Japan time, according to its investor-relations page. The buyback authorization remains in force until January 29, 2027.
