Sanrio Delays Annual Results as Profit Outlook Tops Forecasts During Governance Review Sanrio Company delayed its full-year results while investigating improper compensation involving a managing director, and later issued an outlook calling for operating income of ¥554 million after reporting fourth-quarter net sales that were 27% higher than the prior period cited in the source data.
The investigation highlights governance and control risks at Sanrio, while the update on operating income and sales points to ongoing commercial activity, including continued brand momentum in North and South America even as some licensees faced production and shipping delays linked to US tariffs.
Sanrio’s shares last traded at ¥1,005.50, with the stock up 17.6% over the past 30 days, reflecting a period of recent positive price movement despite the governance review.
The combination of an internal misconduct probe and continued operational progress puts the focus squarely on how Sanrio’s board addresses governance issues while keeping its licensing and brand partnerships on track. Announcement • Jun 24

Kazuo Ohashi Not Resign as Outside Director Serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Member of Sanrio Company, Ltd Sanrio Company, Ltd. resolved at the meeting of the Board of Directors held on June 8, 2026, to withdraw Proposal No. 2, 'Election of One (1) Director serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Member', which was to be resolved at the 66th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. The Company had planned to elect Mayumi Umezawa as an outside director serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Member, subject to approval at the Meeting. However, following the publication of 'NOTICE OF THE 66TH ORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS', the Company received a request from her to withdraw her candidacy for this position due to personal circumstances. Therefore, the Company carefully reconsidered the future structure of its Board of Directors and Audit and Supervisory Committee. As a result, at the meeting of the Board of Directors held on June 8, 2026, the Company resolved to withdraw Proposal No. 2 of the Meeting, in which she was nominated as a candidate for director serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee member. With this withdrawal, Kazuo Ohashi, an outside director serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Member, will not resign at the conclusion of the Meeting but will continue in that role. Although he was originally expected to step down, following the candidate’s withdrawal, the Company reassessed the situation, prioritizing the stability of the Audit and Supervisory Committee and the continuity of its audit functions. The Company therefore determined that the most appropriate course of action would be for Kazuo Ohashi, who currently serves as an outside director and Audit and Supervisory Committee member, to remain in that position. Kazuo Ohashi has served as an Auditor and Audit and Supervisory Committee member of the Company for approximately nine years, and as he possesses in-depth knowledge of the current state and challenges of the Company’s corporate governance, the Company expects him to provide appropriate and prompt support for its future initiatives to strengthen corporate governance. Kazuo Ohashi was elected at the 65th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 26, 2025, with his term expiring at the 67th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders to be held in 2027 (two years after his appointment); therefore, there are no proposals to be resolved regarding him at the Meeting.

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 8.2% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent.
