October update keeps buybacks visible
The company page also schedules Recruit's second-quarter fiscal 2026 results for November 11, 2026, with the earnings release set for 3:30 p.m. JST. That date gives the market a defined checkpoint after the first-quarter acceleration and the latest capital-allocation update.
Recruit Holdings lists the October 1 repurchase item and the November 11 results date on its investor-relations page.
First-quarter growth outpaced revenue
According to Note, revenue reached JPY 1.045 trillion in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, up 18.90 percent from the same period a year earlier. Profit attributable to owners of the parent rose 67.50 percent to JPY 202.618 billion, while the operating margin reached 24.40 percent versus 17.50 percent a year earlier.
The gap between sales and profit growth is the key operating signal. It points to stronger earnings conversion, although the next report will show whether that improvement continues beyond the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Tokyo listing spans JPY 6,040.00 to JPY 18,215.00
Global Banking and Finance identifies Recruit under ticker 6098 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and assigns ISIN JP3970300004. The market capitalization was JPY 23.7 trillion on October 6, 2026, while the 52-week range was JPY 6,040.00 to JPY 18,215.00.
That range places the latest Tokyo valuation well above its yearly low but below the upper boundary, leaving the November results as the next quantified test of earnings momentum. The company's three operating areas are HR Technology, Staffing, and Media and Solutions, with HR Technology central to the recent profit expansion.
