AnyMind beats forecasts as enterprise e-commerce and social commerce drive growth

An update from AnyMind Group Inc. ( (JP:5027) ) is now available.

AnyMind Group reported that for fiscal 2025 it outperformed its revised forecasts on all major profit metrics, with revenue and gross profit reaching 103.7% and 103.2% of guidance, respectively, and profit attributable to owners of the parent exceeding plan despite foreign exchange losses. Operating profit fell year-on-year due to headwinds in the Creator Growth Business and higher variable costs tied to the fast-expanding enterprise e-commerce support operations, but still came in above forecast at ¥1.8 billion with margins in line with expectations.

Growth in the fourth quarter was driven by the Enterprise Growth Business, where overall gross profit rose 29.7% year-on-year, including double-digit expansion in marketing and a 162% surge in enterprise e-commerce, helped by new customer wins, expansion of existing accounts, and the consolidation of Vietnam’s Vibula. The Publisher Growth Business delivered steady gains with improving profitability per publisher, while the Creator Growth Business saw a 50.8% drop in gross profit amid a shifting business environment, highlighting a mix of strong regional performance in Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia and weakness in India and Greater China.

Management emphasized that 2025 marked steady progress in building a foundation for medium- to long-term growth, including standardizing operations through internal use of generative AI and scaling enterprise e-commerce support. The company positions social commerce, anchored by the Enterprise Growth Business, as its central growth engine, leveraging integrated marketing and e-commerce capabilities and its publisher and creator networks to deepen customer data usage, enhance upselling, and reinforce competitive advantages as AI adoption accelerates across the industry.
