Updated Mar 17, 2026 by Sega Sammy Holdings
Sega Sammy reported a net loss of ¥16.9 billion for the nine months ending December 31, 2025, driven primarily by a ¥31.4 billion impairment loss related to the acquisition of Rovio Entertainment.
Operating income declined by 54.6% year-over-year, despite a 4.0% increase in net sales to ¥335.2 billion supported by Sonic the Hedgehog transmedia performance and Paradise City resort profits.
The company is suspending large-scale M&A activities to prioritize balance sheet stability and has initiated a ¥20 billion treasury stock buyback program to retire up to 5.71% of outstanding shares between February and July 2026.
Ordinary income fell significantly across core divisions, with a 34.3% decline in the Entertainment Contents segment and a 46% drop in the Pachislot and Pachinko segment.
While the Gaming segment experienced a 441.6% surge in third-party sales following the consolidation of Stakelogic and GAN, the division ultimately recorded an ordinary loss.
Total net assets decreased to ¥360.6 billion due to operational headwinds, dividend payments, and treasury stock acquisitions.
