Dentsu sells Ginza building, expects ¥30 bn gain

Dentsu Group Inc. announced on December 24, 2025, the sale of its fixed asset, the Dentsu Ginza Building, with a transfer agreement executed on the same date. The transfer is scheduled for January 30, 2026. The company anticipates recording an approximate JPY 30 billion gain on sale in FY2026, aiming to optimize capital allocation and achieve a more sustainable business structure.

This transaction is projected to positively impact Dentsu's FY2026 consolidated financial results under IFRS, with an estimated JPY 30 billion increase in statutory operating profit (loss) and approximately JPY 22 billion increase in statutory net profit (loss) attributable to owners of the parent. The company states there will be no impact on underlying operating profit (loss) or underlying net profit (loss).

The Dentsu Ginza Building, completed in December 1933, is located in Tokyo's Chuo-ku, Ginza, with a site area of 696.64 square meters. While the transferee remains undisclosed due to a confidentiality agreement, Dentsu confirms no capital or personnel relationships exist between the parties. The consolidated financial forecast for FY2026, reflecting this impact, will be announced in February 2026 with the FY2025 full-year results.
