SoftBank Integrated Report 2025
Every year, SoftBank publishes an Integrated Report, a comprehensive document that includes information on its vision, medium- to long-term growth strategies, value creation processes, materiality, and financial and non-financial information.
FY2024 Review: Strong financial results that deepened our confidence in our growth strategy
FY2024 was a year in which our growth strategy steadily bore fruit, deepening our confidence in its effectiveness. Our results were strong, with “both revenue and profits increasing.” We recorded revenue of ¥6,544.3 billion (up 8% year on year), operating income of ¥989.0 billion (up 13% year on year), and net income attributable to owners of the Company of ¥526.1 billion (up 8% year on year), surpassing even the earnings forecast that we had revised upward at the second-quarter results announcement. As a result, we achieved our Medium-term Management Plan's financial targets of ¥6.5 trillion in revenue and ¥970.0 billion in operating income one year ahead of schedule. This achievement was only made possible because each of our employees embraced the ambitious goals I set as their own and shared a common view of the future. I believe this strong growth is the result of the entire Company thoroughly implementing “reverse planning management” and pulling together to take on difficult challenges.
Over the course of his message, Miyakawa discusses FY2024 results, goals for FY2025, the performance and future growth initiatives of each business segment, strategies aimed at realizing a Next-generation Social Infrastructure, ESG-related initiatives, and policies on shareholder returns.
