SoftBank Corp stock stood at JPY 245.90 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on September 25, 2026, down JPY 0.40 or 0.16 percent from the previous close. The price was 2.77 percent below the 52-week high of JPY 252.90, giving the market a precise measure of how close the shares remain to their yearly peak.

Analyst target rises to JPY 288

A U.S. brokerage kept its bullish rating on September 14, 2026, and lifted its price target from JPY 255 to JPY 288, according to Monex. The new target stands JPY 42.10 above the September 25 price, equivalent to 17.12 percent, while the target consensus cited in the same September 14 report was JPY 264.

The target revision matters because it arrived after the company entered fiscal 2026 with broader growth ambitions beyond mobile communications. The higher estimate also places the analyst view 12.79 percent above the target consensus of JPY 264, a measurable gap between the most optimistic cited view and the wider analyst average.

Q1 revenue grows 9 percent

SoftBank's official Q1 FY2026 earnings summary states that revenue rose 9 percent year over year to a record Q1 level, while enterprise segment operating income increased 28 percent year over year, according to SoftBank. The enterprise division includes mobile services, data centers, cloud services, security, artificial intelligence and digital marketing, giving the operating-income comparison a direct link to the company's growth investment.

A separate September 2, 2026 announcement said SoftBank and Sceye completed a stratospheric connectivity demonstration in Japan. The trial reported an average round-trip processing response time of 68 milliseconds and a communication latency reduction of over 40 percent compared with internet-based cloud processing, according to EQS News. That result adds a quantified technology dimension to the company's enterprise and network strategy.

Stock remains below the yearly peak

SoftBank Corp shares traded between JPY 245.50 and JPY 247.90 during the September 25 session. Volume reached 74,666,600 shares, while market capitalization stood at JPY 11,762,311,694,640 on the same date. The combination of a 0.16 percent daily decline and a 2.77 percent gap to the yearly high leaves the analyst target and Q1 growth figures as the clearest measurable reference points.
