Why is 5706.T up today?

Investors are reacting to a 56% upgrade to FY2026 ordinary profit guidance and a higher annual dividend of ¥240. Tailwinds include a weaker yen, firmer metal prices, and steady data center demand. Technicals are strong, though overbought readings suggest near-term consolidation is possible as momentum cools.

What does the +56% guidance change mean?

Ordinary profit is now projected to rise 56% year on year to a record level in FY2026, signaling stronger core earnings. Management cited currency and commodity supports, plus demand from data center-related materials. See coverage on [Kabutan](https://kabutan.jp/news/?b=k202602130290) for the upgraded outlook details.

What is the new dividend and yield for Mitsui Mining & Smelting?

The company raised its annual dividend to ¥240, an increase of ¥30. At a share price of ¥26,540, the forward dividend yield is about 0.90%. The actual yield will change with the share price and any future dividend updates during FY2026.

Is the valuation of 5706.T stretched after the rally?

The stock trades near 32.5x TTM EPS and 4.4x P/B with ROE around 14%. Fast EPS growth helps, but technicals show overbought conditions. We think gradual entries, focus on FY2026 delivery, and monitoring metals and USD/JPY are prudent to balance valuation and cyclical risks.
