In its latest earnings report for the three-month period ending June 30, 2025, SoftBank Group Corp. reported significant financial improvements, highlighted by a substantial increase in income before income tax and net income attributable to owners of the parent, compared to the previous year.
The company reported net sales of ¥1,820,341 million, a 7.0% increase year-on-year, and a remarkable income before income tax of ¥689,941 million, up by 205.7% from the previous year. The net income attributable to owners of the parent improved significantly to ¥421,819 million, reflecting a year-on-year increase of ¥596,100 million. Key contributors to these results included gains from SoftBank Vision Funds, particularly from investments in companies like Coupang and NVIDIA, despite losses in T-Mobile and Alibaba shares.
Strategically, SoftBank continues to ramp up investments, notably with a $10 billion follow-on investment in OpenAI Global, and has secured substantial financing through bridge loans and bond issuances to support its growth initiatives. The company also completed the centralization of its robotics-related investments under a new intermediate holding company, Robo HD, to enhance value creation through synergies.
Looking ahead, SoftBank’s management remains focused on leveraging its strategic investments and financial maneuvers to sustain growth and maximize shareholder value, despite the inherent volatility in the investment landscape.
