Sony Financial Group's (TYO:8729) profit attributable to owners of the parent soared 84% to 67.1 billion yen for the nine months ended Dec. 31, 2025, from 36.5 billion yen a year earlier.

The company's basic earnings per share increased to 9.52 yen from 5.11 yen a year ago, according to a Tokyo bourse filing on Friday.

Ordinary revenues increased 10% to 2.56 trillion yen from 2.33 trillion yen in the year-ago period.

In a separate filing, Sony Financial Group slashed its forecasts for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, citing expected higher losses following additional bond sales due to additional rebalancing under its asset-liability management approach.

The company expects an attributable profit of 50.0 billion yen, basic EPS of 7.09 yen, and ordinary profit of 79.0 billion yen.

Sony Financial Group plans to pay a year-end dividend of 3.80 yen per share for the current fiscal year.
