JAPAN Creative Platform Group Co., Ltd. ( (JP:7814) ) has shared an announcement.
Japan Creative Platform Group reported consolidated net sales of ¥86.99 billion for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, up 8.6% year on year, while operating profit fell 30.8% to ¥3.01 billion and ordinary profit declined 23.8%. Despite weaker margins, profit attributable to owners of parent more than doubled to ¥6.53 billion, supported by factors including equity-method gains and structural changes in the group, driving ROE up to 36.2% and improving the equity ratio to 24.4% as total assets and net assets both increased.
The company significantly raised its annual dividend for 2025 to ¥60 per share from ¥13, implying a much higher payout and signaling shareholder return emphasis following the surge in earnings. For 2026, it forecasts net sales growth to ¥95 billion but expects operating profit to fall further and profit attributable to owners of parent to drop 69.4%, reflecting conservative profit expectations amid continued portfolio reshuffling, accounting policy changes, and ongoing industry and integration costs that may weigh on short-term profitability.
