HAKUHODO DY HOLDINGS INCORPORATED [2433.T]

TOKYO, May 26 (Pulse News Wire) – Hakuhodo DY Holdings Incorporated (2433.T) reported strong progress toward its mid-term goals for fiscal year ending March 2027. Adjusted pre-impairment operating profit grew significantly beyond the targeted average annual growth rate of 10%.

Additionally, adjusted gross margin exceeded the target level set for fiscal year 2027, reflecting successful structural reforms. However, the return on equity fell below the target due to one-time costs associated with restructuring efforts domestically and overseas. In marketing business reform, the newly established Group Account Strategy Room aimed to enhance overall competitiveness within the group.

By integrating diverse resources across various sectors, the company achieved a sales growth of more than 5.9%. Furthermore, the integration of Hakuhodo Dy One and Digital Holdings improved operational efficiency, boosting domestic digital advertising revenue share to second place. For future growth, the company emphasized expanding consulting services and leveraging IP businesses through strategic partnerships such as the joint venture Chapter-I with CJ ENM and acquiring shares in Amuse Sports Holdings.

These initiatives aim to create sustainable revenue models and drive continuous expansion in key areas.
