Kawasaki Heavy (ISIN JP3224200000) was last at JPY 2,369 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 6, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. JST, up 0.62 percent for the session. The move came as a fresh investor update outlined a FY2026 revenue forecast of JPY 2.56 trillion and business profit forecast of JPY 180 billion, according to Quartr on October 6, 2026.

FY2026 forecast sets the tone

The FY2026 revenue plan points to a larger operating base, while the JPY 180 billion business profit forecast makes profitability the more important checkpoint for the stock. The same update sets a FY2030 ambition of more than JPY 3.3 trillion in revenue and more than JPY 330 billion in business profit, with a margin target above 10 percent, according to Quartr.

The capital plan adds another dimension. Kawasaki Heavy raised JPY 200 billion in July 2026 through a public offering and convertible bonds, with the proceeds directed toward growth areas including robotics, hydrogen, gas turbines, ships and aerospace, the investor update said.

First quarter showed operating leverage

For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, revenue reached JPY 543.576 billion, up 11.3 percent from the prior-year quarter, while operating profit rose 74.3 percent to JPY 35.752 billion. The figures cover April through June 2026 and were released on August 7, 2026, according to note.com summarizing the company filing.

Quarterly profit attributable to owners of the parent was JPY 15.663 billion, an increase of 269.0 percent from the comparable period. The operating result therefore expanded faster than revenue, giving investors a concrete test for whether the full-year profit plan can absorb financing costs, foreign-exchange effects and execution risk.

Analyst targets remain above the quote

Investing.com lists a Buy consensus from 14 analysts, with nine Buy ratings, five Holds and zero Sells. The average 12-month target is JPY 3,614.29, with a low of JPY 2,500 and a high of JPY 4,900.

Against the JPY 2,369 price on October 6, 2026, the average target lies 52.57 percent above the price. The range is wide, so the forecast is better read as a measure of expected upside dispersion than as a single market view.

Stock remains below its yearly high

Kawasaki Heavy's market capitalization was JPY 2.1 trillion on October 6, 2026, while volume reached 11,235,600 shares. The 52-week range was JPY 1,878 to JPY 3,766, placing the latest price 37.09 percent below the yearly high.

The stock was last at JPY 2,369 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 6, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. JST. The next valuation debate centers on whether the 74.3 percent first-quarter operating-profit increase can support the JPY 180 billion FY2026 business-profit forecast.
