Hitachi Reports FY2025 Net Income of 802.4 Billion Yen as Revenue Climbs 8%

Hitachi reported net income attributable to stockholders of 802.4 billion yen for fiscal 2025, up from 615.7 billion yen the prior year, according to RTTNews. Consolidated revenue for the year ended March 31, 2026 rose 8% year over year to 10.59 trillion yen, RTTNews reported, with adjusted EBITA reaching an all-time high of 1.31 trillion yen, according to Investing.com. Hitachi released the results alongside a progress update on its Inspire 2027 management plan on April 27, 2026, per the company's investor relations page.

The Details

Diluted earnings per share increased to 176.63 yen from 133.72 yen in the prior fiscal year, RTTNews reported. Investing.com said Hitachi shares rose 2.43% following the presentation, though that figure carried medium confidence in the sourced brief given that the Investing.com article page was not directly retrieved.

RTTNews attributed the revenue growth to expansion of Hitachi's Lumada digital business, strong transmission-equipment demand in its energy segment, solid domestic digital demand in Japan, and robust rail control performance in the company's mobility division.

Hitachi President and CEO Toshiaki Tokunaga presented progress on the Inspire 2027 management plan at the same investor event, while CFO Tomomi Kato presented the consolidated financial results, according to the company's investor relations page.

For fiscal 2026, Hitachi forecast net income attributable to stockholders of 850.0 billion yen, adjusted operating income of 1.3 trillion yen and revenue of 11.1 trillion yen, RTTNews reported.

Context

The fiscal 2025 results cover the twelve months ended March 31, 2026 — the standard Japanese fiscal year calendar. Hitachi's Inspire 2027 management plan sets the strategic framework through the end of fiscal 2027, and the April 27 presentation paired the annual results with a progress update on that plan, according to Hitachi's investor relations page.

RTTNews attributed the energy segment's strong performance to transmission-equipment demand.

What's Next

Hitachi's next full fiscal-year guidance period runs through March 31, 2027, with the company forecasting revenue of 11.1 trillion yen and net income of 850.0 billion yen for that year, according to RTTNews. No further scheduled announcements tied to the April 27 results presentation were identified in the sourced record.
