Mito’s preliminary first-half profit more than doubles

Mito Securities’ 20 October update puts net profit at ¥1,923 million for April–September 2026. The figures are preliminary and may change.[1]

The company attributes growth to equity-related revenue and recurring income from investment-trust distribution fees and fund-wrap charges. Operating profit represented approximately 27.1% of revenue, against 15.6% a year earlier, calculated from the rounded figures.[1]

These fee streams have different sensitivities. Transactions generate dealing revenue, whereas recurring fees can continue while assets remain in the relevant service. Rising portfolio values and new client money can both influence asset-based income; headline earnings alone cannot separate their contributions.
