Performance Overview
Asahi Group Holdings has postponed the announcement of its full-year financial results for the fiscal year ending December 2025 due to system failures caused by a cyberattack that occurred on September 29, 2025. The new announcement date is undecided. Progress has been disclosed mainly for overseas operations, with European revenue declining 2.5% YoY but operating income increasing by a low single-digit percentage. Asia Pacific also saw revenue increase 3.7% YoY and operating income grow by a low single-digit percentage. In Japan and East Asia, due to the system failure, revenue and operating income could not be finalized, with declines expected in both.
Outlook and Management Policy
The plan for fiscal 2026 aims for revenue and profit growth in Europe and Asia Pacific, while plans for Japan and East Asia are still under development and will be disclosed at the time of the financial announcement. The President stated efforts will focus on complete system restoration and normalization of the logistics system to recover lost sales opportunities. Strengthening the business portfolio, including equity acquisition in East Africa operations, will continue. Although there will be temporary impacts on financial indicators and cash flow, there will be no changes to the financial policy through 2030.
