GMO Internet Group announces subsidiary share transfer, expects dividend receipt

GMO Internet Group announced a dividend receipt of 5,740 million yen from GMO Ad Holdings, a consolidated subsidiary, expected by September 30, 2025. This will be recorded as non-operating revenue in GMO Internet Group's individual financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 2025, with no impact on consolidated results.

Concurrently, GMO Financial Holdings (GMO-FH), a consolidated subsidiary of GMO Internet Group, resolved on September 19, 2025, to transfer all shares of GMO-Z.com Forex HK Limited to Remi Holding Group Limited. This strategic move aims to enhance GMO-FH's focus on its domestic strengths while driving growth initiatives. GMO-Z.com Forex HK, a Hong Kong-based provider of over-the-counter FX trading services, has share capital of HK$57 million.

The share transfer is contingent on approval from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, with the transfer price set to equal GMO-Z.com Forex HK Limited's net assets at the time of transfer plus HK$1 million. The transaction is scheduled to be completed in January 2026 or later, with the impact on GMO Internet Group's consolidated business results expected to be minimal.
