In this article (4)
Asics, a renowned Japanese firm specializing in footwear and apparel, has hit an all-time high in the 2025 fiscal year, demonstrating growth across all aspects of its operation.
Stellar Financial Performance
The fiscal year that ended on December 31, 2025, saw Asics garner as much as ¥810.9 billion (US$5.298 billion), marking a 19.5 per cent surge in growth from the previous year. The firm also recorded an operating profit of ¥14.2 billion ($92.8 million), an impressive figure by any standard.
For four consecutive years, Asics has consistently set new records in terms of net sales and operating profit. Notably, 2025 was the year when the company’s Sport Style and Onitsuka Tiger brands crossed the ¥100 billion milestone in net sales.
Brand Expansion and Innovative Projects
Onitsuka Tiger, the luxury lifestyle label hailing from Japan, debuted its flagship stores in notable European cities such as Barcelona, London, and Paris in 2025. This move is part of Asics’ strategy to further strengthen its market presence. Simultaneously, the company has initiated the construction of the Onitsuka Innovative Factory, located in Sakaiminato City.
Asics reported a 34.7 per cent increase in domestic sales on a year-on-year basis, attributing this to the 84 per cent boost in sales derived from tourists visiting Japan. This surge in domestic growth was mirrored by a 33.4 per cent rise in sales in Southeast and South Asia, underpinned by the opening of a flagship store in New Delhi.
Despite initial concerns, Asics saw its sales in Greater China grow by 19.9 per cent.
Supporting Global Athletic Events
As the official partner of the 2025 World Athletics Championships held in Tokyo, Asics successfully executed targeted product launches in Japan, thereby solidifying its position among runners and athletes.
