Coca-Cola BJ (ISIN JP3293200006) had accumulated 7,683,700 repurchased shares by September 30, 2026, according to Japan IR in its October 2, 2026 disclosure. The capital-return program is now the clearest company-specific marker ahead of the next results date.
Buyback reaches 7.68 million shares
The latest notice covered purchases from September 1 through September 30, 2026. The company acquired 497,400 shares during that period for JPY 1,898,108,305, taking cumulative purchases to 7,683,700 shares and JPY 27,134,681,260.
The chronology began with the first-half results on July 30, 2026. Yahoo Finance reported that first-half revenue grew 1.3 percent year over year to JPY 423.1 billion, while gross profit increased 3.4 percent. Business income rose by JPY 6.6 billion versus the prior year.
What does the plan mean for profits?
Management linked the shareholder-return push to improved profitability rather than to top-line expansion alone. The July 30 earnings call set a full-year business income target of JPY 35 billion and outlined a new JPY 40 billion buyback over one year starting in November 2026.
The operating challenge is cost control. The same call described a potential JPY 2 billion to JPY 4 billion cost increase linked to external conditions, while pricing actions and transformation savings were intended to protect the full-year target. This leaves profit delivery and the effect of price revisions as the key measures for the next update.
Results are due October 30, 2026
The next reporting date is October 30, 2026, according to Forecaster. The listed company also shows an ex-dividend date of December 31, 2026, giving investors two dated milestones for assessing earnings progress and capital returns.
