Shunki Nakamura’s rating is based on Toei Animation Co., Ltd.’s recent upward revision of its fiscal year 2025 sales and operating profit guidance, which indicates a strong financial outlook. The company has increased its sales and operating profit expectations due to better-than-anticipated performance in licensing and streaming revenues, as well as favorable foreign exchange impacts.
This positive adjustment surpasses both market consensus and previous estimates, highlighting the company’s robust growth potential. Key contributors to this optimistic forecast include sustained royalty income from popular titles, expansion of international sales for the ONE PIECE card game, and significant bonuses from streaming platform viewership. These factors collectively present an attractive risk/reward scenario, justifying the Buy rating.
