Sun* Inc. Posts Lower FY2025 Profit but Signals Earnings Rebound Under IFRS in 2026

Sun Asterisk, Inc. ( (JP:4053) ) has issued an announcement.

Sun* Inc. reported consolidated net sales of ¥14.8 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025, up 9.3% year on year, but saw profitability weaken as operating income fell 27.1% to ¥1.05 billion and net income attributable to shareholders dropped 53.5% to ¥476 million. Despite lower margins and a decline in return on equity, total assets and cash increased, the company kept its no-dividend policy, and it changed depreciation methods and accounting policies ahead of adopting IFRS in 2026, when it forecasts a strong rebound in earnings.

The company projects fiscal 2026 net sales of ¥18.2 billion and net income of ¥1.39 billion under IFRS, implying a significant recovery in profit levels and earnings per share, even though year-on-year comparison rates are not disclosed due to the accounting framework change. Sun* also expanded its consolidation scope with the addition of GlobalGear Co. Ltd. and continued share buybacks that increased treasury stock, moves that may reshape its business portfolio and capital structure as it seeks to restore growth momentum and improve shareholder returns over the medium term.
