Sapporo Holdings ( (JP:2501) ) just unveiled an update.

Sapporo Holdings has revised its full-year 2025 consolidated earnings forecast following the decision to bring in external capital to its wholly owned subsidiary Sapporo Real Estate and to classify the Real Estate business as a discontinued operation under IFRS 5. As a result, forecast revenue has been cut from ¥523.0 billion to ¥501.8 billion and core operating profit from ¥29.5 billion to ¥22.5 billion, with operating profit lowered to ¥21.1 billion, reflecting the removal of the real estate segment from continuing operations. Despite these downward revisions, net profit, profit attributable to owners of the parent and basic earnings per share remain unchanged at ¥16.5 billion and ¥211.62, respectively, and the company says the impact of the transaction on this year’s consolidated earnings will be minimal. Sapporo will maintain its dividend forecast of ¥90 per share for 2025 and will change its reportable segments from the current fiscal year to reflect the reclassification of the real estate business, signaling a clearer focus on its core beverage and food operations while using external capital to reshape its non-core assets.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:2501) stock is a Hold with a Yen8702.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Sapporo Holdings stock, see the JP:2501 Stock Forecast page.
