BlockBeats News, May 13th, SoftBank Group announced an unexpected increase in quarterly profit, mainly due to the valuation uplift of its investment in OpenAI. The net profit for the fourth quarter reached 1.83 trillion Japanese yen ($16 billion), while the average analyst expectation was 295.2 billion yen. The valuation uplift of OpenAI boosted SoftBank's performance, while the Middle East conflict disrupted the market. During this period, stock prices of SoftBank's major publicly listed companies, including Coupang and Grab Holdings, all experienced declines, impacting the company's earnings. SoftBank's founder, Masayoshi Son, has been selling off shares and increasing SoftBank's debt burden to fund its expanding investments in the artificial intelligence sector.
SoftBank Group stated that as of the end of March, the accumulated unrealized gains from its investment in OpenAI amounted to $45 billion. Son unveiled ambitious plans involving billions of dollars in data center investments, while pledging to increase SoftBank's total investment in OpenAI to $64.6 billion by the year's end.
