On October 8, 2026, a major US brokerage kept its Buy rating on Brother and raised its target from JPY 5,000 to JPY 5,600, as Yahoo Finance reported. The target change gives Brother stock a fresh valuation reference while the next results date is already set.

Fiscal 2026 earnings improved

In fiscal 2026, which ended March 31, 2026, Brother generated JPY 893.5 billion in revenue, up 1.93 percent from JPY 876.6 billion in fiscal 2025, according to Investvio. The comparison points to continued top-line expansion even before the company reports its next interim period.

Operating income rose to JPY 83.6 billion from JPY 77.7 billion, an increase of 7.66 percent. Net income reached JPY 67.6 billion versus JPY 54.8 billion, up 23.43 percent, with the same fiscal-year comparison reported by Investvio.

What does the target change mean for valuation

The JPY 5,600 target stands 22.61 percent above the JPY 4,567.00 average target cited for six analysts on October 7, 2026. That gap makes the raised target a clear counterpoint to the broader consensus, while the Buy rating was maintained on October 8, 2026, according to Yahoo Finance.

Three dated developments

On August 6, 2026, Brother reported first-quarter profit growth of more than 300 percent; on September 16, 2026, it announced a sustainability Leader designation after remanufacturing more than 45 million toner cartridges as of March 31, 2026, according to MarketScreener.

On October 8, 2026, the brokerage raised its target to JPY 5,600 from JPY 5,000 while keeping Buy, as Yahoo Finance reported.

Next dates are already scheduled

Brother will announce second-quarter fiscal 2026 results on November 9, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. Japan time, and will post presentation materials at 4:00 p.m., according to Brother. The presentation with notes is scheduled for November 13, 2026, giving investors two dated information points for the next reporting cycle.

Last euro quote was dated October 12
