Fuji Media Holdings ups full-year profit forecast on asset sale

Fuji Media Holdings has revised its consolidated net profit attributable to the parent company for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, to JPY 16,500 million, up 65.0% from the previously forecasted JPY 10,000 million. This increase is primarily due to an extraordinary gain of JPY 28,088 million from the sale of 10,575,000 shares of Toei Animation common stock.

The sale, which occurred at JPY 2,835 per share, resulting in a total of JPY 29,980 million, was completed on September 17, 2025. This transaction has significantly boosted the company's projected net income per share for the period, now expected to be JPY 79.52, compared to the initial JPY 48.20.

Despite the substantial increase in net profit, the company’s revenue, operating profit, and ordinary profit forecasts remain unchanged at JPY 546,600 million, JPY 12,000 million, and JPY 8,500 million, respectively.
