Dentsu (ISIN JP3551520004) was last at JPY 3,540 on the TSE Prime market on October 7, 2026 at 1:14 p.m. JST, up 0.83 percent during the session. As Simply Wall St reported on October 1, 2026, analysts lifted the published price target from JPY 3,442 to JPY 3,620.

Half-year profit returned

According to Note.com on August 14, 2026, Dentsu reported JPY 71.9 billion in adjusted operating profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026, up 6.6 percent from the same period a year earlier. Gross profit reached JPY 583.0 billion, an increase of 3.7 percent.

The statutory operating result was JPY 83.8 billion, compared with an operating loss of JPY 36.5 billion in the prior-year period. Net income attributable to parent-company owners was JPY 46.2 billion, reversing a JPY 73.6 billion loss.

Target still above the market

The JPY 3,620 analyst target stands 2.26 percent above the October 7 price of JPY 3,540. That spread is modest, but the target revision matters because it followed a move from JPY 3,442 and reflects a more constructive valuation view.

Dentsu's full-year 2026 outlook calls for adjusted operating profit of JPY 166.3 billion, down 3.6 percent from the prior year, according to Note.com. The forecast leaves the recovery dependent on profit improvement outside Japan, while the half-year figures show that the domestic business remains the stronger contributor.

Stock remains below yearly high

Dentsu's JPY 3,540 quote is 8.62 percent below its 52-week high of JPY 3,874 and 34.0 percent above its 52-week low of JPY 2,642. The company has a market capitalization of JPY 918.9 billion and traded 250,700 shares on October 7, 2026.

The listing and identity are confirmed by Yuhodb, which identifies Dentsu Group Inc. as ticker 4324, lists it on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime market, assigns ISIN JP3551520004 and places it in the TOPIX Mid400. For investors, the central question is whether the first-half return to profit can offset the weaker full-year profit outlook.

Dentsu stock has a November checkpoint

InvestPane lists November 13, 2026 as Dentsu's next earnings date. The date gives the market a defined checkpoint for testing the recovery shown in the June 30 half-year figures.
