NEXON Co ( (JP:3659) ) just unveiled an update.
NEXON reported 2025 revenue of ¥475.1 billion, up 6.5% year on year, while operating profit was flat at ¥124.0 billion and profit attributable to owners fell 31.7% to ¥92.1 billion, reflecting a sharp decline in profit before tax and lower return on equity. Despite softer profitability metrics and a drop in the equity ratio to 75.0%, total assets and cash reserves grew strongly, and operating cash flow surged to ¥171.9 billion, underpinning a near doubling of annual dividends to ¥45 per share for 2025.
The company plans to lift its payout further in 2026 with a forecast total dividend of ¥60 per share and is guiding for a strong rebound in earnings in the first quarter of 2026, with revenue projected to rise as much as 44% and profit attributable to owners up to 84.4%. NEXON did not provide full-year 2026 guidance, citing difficulty in reasonably estimating results, but the robust cash position, higher shareholder returns, and bullish Q1 outlook signal management’s confidence in future growth despite recent margin pressure.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:3659) stock is a Buy with a Yen4199.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on NEXON Co stock, see the JP:3659 Stock Forecast page.
