The latest announcement is out from Sanrio Company ( (JP:8136) ).
Sanrio reported record-high consolidated net sales and operating profit for the cumulative third quarter of its fiscal year ending March 2026, driven by strong product sales and licensing across Japan and overseas markets. Strategic rollouts of Sanrio Original Products, expanded use of its characters across categories, and stronger ties with major licensees underpinned growth despite weaker inbound demand in Japan.
In Japan, both product sales and the licensing business remained solid, aided by a new flagship store in Harajuku and steady demand in toys and apparel. Internationally, licensing growth in apparel and toys, rising store sales in mainland China, and robust demand from fast fashion partners in Europe fueled higher sales and profits, prompting Sanrio to raise its full-year forecast to 190.6 billion yen in net sales and 75.1 billion yen in operating profit.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:8136) stock is a Buy with a Yen5232.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Sanrio Company stock, see the JP:8136 Stock Forecast page.
