The latest update is out from Asahi Broadcasting Group Holdings Corporation ( (JP:9405) ).
Asahi Broadcasting Group Holdings reported consolidated net sales of ¥95.99 billion for the year ended March 31, 2026, up 4.4% year on year, with operating profit surging 83.8% to ¥4.76 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent jumping 78.1% to ¥4.46 billion. Profitability ratios improved, equity rose to ¥82.60 billion, and cash and cash equivalents increased to ¥30.59 billion, while the company sharply lifted its annual dividend to ¥33 per share for FY2026 but forecasts lower FY2027 sales and a 39.4% drop in profit, signaling a more cautious outlook despite the strong current-year performance.
Net assets climbed to ¥84.27 billion with an equity-to-asset ratio of 61.4%, reflecting a stronger balance sheet as operating cash flow expanded to ¥7.78 billion and investing outflows moderated. However, the company projects FY2027 net sales of ¥92.3 billion and operating profit of ¥4.0 billion, anticipating pressure on earnings after an exceptionally strong FY2026, a trend stakeholders will watch closely in terms of dividend sustainability and growth momentum.
