Mitsubishi UFJ reported a 51% year-on-year increase in net profit for Q1 FY26, surpassing consensus estimates by 14%. The bank's net interest income rose 28% due to loan growth, margin expansion, and strong trading and affiliate income.

The outlook remains positive with a maintained 'Buy' rating and a target price reflecting a 32% valuation increase.
