Recruit Holdings (JP3970300004) was trading at EUR 100.46 at Lang & Schwarz on October 12, 2026 at 10:01 a.m. CEST. The company had reported buyback progress on October 1, 2026, including 2,702,500 repurchased shares, according to IT-Boltwise.
Three milestones shape the story
On May 15, 2026, Recruit Holdings set FY2026 revenue guidance at JPY 4,030.0 billion and operating income guidance at JPY 787.0 billion. On August 7, 2026, the company reported first-quarter revenue of JPY 1,045.3 billion, up 18.90 percent year over year, in its Recruit Holdings earnings release. On October 1, 2026, the buyback update put the latest repurchase figure at 2,702,500 shares, according to IT-Boltwise.
Higher guidance sets the benchmark
The August release lifted FY2026 revenue guidance to JPY 4,230.0 billion from JPY 4,030.0 billion, a 4.96 percent increase calculated from the two guidance figures. Operating income guidance rose to JPY 945.0 billion from JPY 787.0 billion, while basic earnings per share guidance increased to JPY 543.00 from JPY 447.00.
What does the buyback change?
The repurchase program allows up to 64,000,000 shares and a maximum purchase price of JPY 350.0 billion through November 30, 2026, according to the August earnings release. That ceiling gives the October 1 figure a clear program context, while the first-quarter operating income increase of 66.10 percent shows why the revised outlook is central to the stock narrative.
Next results date is November 11
Recruit Holdings lists its second-quarter FY2026 financial results for November 11, 2026, with the release scheduled for 3:30 p.m. JST, according to the company investor-relations calendar. The date is the next defined checkpoint for the revised JPY 4,230.0 billion revenue outlook.
