Business
Hikari Tsushin, Inc. operates as a diversified holding company primarily serving small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and individual customers in Japan, with business operations spanning electricity and gas supply; telecommunications services including communication lines and supplementary services; manufacturing, sales and delivery of natural mineral water under its beverage segment; non-life and life insurance products, as well as warranty services; financial services such as microfinance; IT solutions offering platforms including customer management and settlement systems; and commission-based sales acting as an agent for telecommunications carriers and manufacturers. Founded in 1988 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Hikari Tsushin maintains a business model centered on stock businesses that generate continuous revenue through usage fees following the sale of goods and services. The company recently announced a major share repurchase program of up to 350,000 shares amounting to ¥10 billion as part of a strategy to enhance shareholder returns, alongside increased dividend guidance and an upward revision of its profit forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. Additional recent strategic moves include bond issuance in foreign currencies and acquisition activities, notably making Zappallas, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary, reflecting efforts to strengthen its position in telecommunications and IT solutions while diversifying revenue streams across multiple sectors within Japan and internationally. Hikari Tsushin is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market under the ticker 9435.
