Suntory Beverage & Food Posts Modest Sales Growth but Lower Profit in 2025, Keeps Dividend Steady

Suntory Beverage & Food ( (JP:2587) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Suntory Beverage & Food reported a slight 1.1% increase in revenue to ¥1.72 trillion for the year ended December 31, 2025, but operating income fell 7.2% and profit attributable to owners declined 5.1%, reflecting margin pressure despite top-line growth. The company kept its annual dividend at ¥120 per share and projects 2026 revenue to rise 6.4% with modest earnings growth, signaling a focus on stable shareholder returns and steady expansion even as profitability ratios remain below the prior year.

Operating cash flow decreased compared with the previous year, while continued investment and shareholder payouts resulted in net cash outflows from investing and financing activities, indicating ongoing capital deployment to support long-term growth and maintain its competitive position in the beverage market.
