Sapporo Holdings Limited, a prominent player in the alcoholic beverages and food & soft drinks sectors, is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and Sapporo Securities Exchange. The company is known for its strong presence in the Japanese beer market and its strategic focus on real estate development.
In its latest earnings report for the first quarter of 2025, Sapporo Holdings reported a year-over-year increase in revenue by 5.2% to ¥118,678 million, despite facing challenges such as geopolitical risks and fluctuating exchange rates. However, the company experienced a decline in operating profit and profit attributable to owners of the parent, primarily due to impairment losses and foreign exchange losses.
Key highlights from the report include a robust performance in the Japanese alcoholic beverages segment, with a significant increase in domestic beer sales. The real estate segment also showed positive growth, driven by improved office occupancy rates and increased rental income. Conversely, the food & soft drinks segment faced revenue declines due to structural reforms and operational disruptions in overseas markets.
Looking ahead, Sapporo Holdings remains committed to its medium-term management plan, focusing on structural reforms and growth acceleration to enhance profitability. The company maintains its full-year forecast for 2025, anticipating a modest revenue increase and significant improvements in core operating profit and profit attributable to owners of the parent.
