SoftBank reported a fiscal Q1 net profit of 347.3 billion yen ($2.2 billion), surpassing analyst expectations of 120.23 billion yen, despite an 18% year-on-year decline. The profit was driven by a 1.3 trillion yen ($8.2 billion) gain from its stake in Intel, alongside a $2.2 billion increase in the value of its ByteDance investment, which helped offset losses in other Vision Fund holdings. This strong performance highlights SoftBank's successful investment strategy in key tech companies, although overall profit declined compared to last year. Investors will watch how these holdings perform in coming quarters amid market volatility.
