Recruit Holdings

Recruit has significantly increased its full-year targets: revenue forecast raised to ¥4.23 trillion and EBITDA+S to ¥1.105 trillion, adjusted earnings per share now ¥543. The driver was a strong first quarter, notably the HR-technology segment with Indeed and Glassdoor and AI-supported monetization. After the forecast upgrade, buy orders overwhelmed trading in Tokyo and the stock ran up to the daily price limit. Risks remain due to an ongoing antitrust review in Japan; the company is meanwhile continuing its share buyback program and holds around ¥908.5 billion in cash and equivalents. » Mais em finanzen.net
