TOKYO, May 14 (Pulse News Wire) – Digital Garage,inc. (4819.T) reported a significant increase in pre-tax profit for the fiscal year ended March 2026, driven primarily by improved performance across key segments.
The company's consolidated pre-tax income reached ¥3 billion, marking a substantial rise compared to the previous year due to reduced investment evaluation losses. In its Platform Solutions segment, the firm saw growth despite challenges such as franchise cancellations impacting revenue expansion. Notably, the integration of next-generation payment solutions like “NESTA” and strategic partnerships with KDDI Group have bolstered long-term prospects. Meanwhile, the incubation efforts in the Global Investment Incubation segment showed progress towards achieving mid-term goals through collaborations with entities like Ion Pacific. Additionally, Digital Garage highlighted plans to reorganize its media portfolio strategically, involving a consortium led by EQT to launch a tender offer for Kakaku.com shares.
Should the deal succeed, Kakaku.com would delist, while Digital Garage intends to retain approximately 20% shares. This move is expected to enhance capital efficiency and support future growth initiatives. Looking ahead, the company emphasized its commitment to balancing growth and shareholder returns through disciplined capital allocation and robust financial strategies. Plans include reallocating resources to core areas, enhancing operational efficiencies, and pursuing aggressive yet sustainable dividend policies. Digital Garage also outlined its sustainability efforts, aiming to deepen environmental and social responsibility commitments through continuous improvement and transparency.
