OM Digital Solutions (the company behind OM System) is privately held, so it does not publish its financial reports. The numbers in this post come from Toyo Keizai’s Japan Company Handbook Industry Map. OM Digital Solutions continues to operate in the red for 2025, with sales plateauing after a few years of steady growth. Here is how the latest numbers break down compared to previous years since the company spun out of Olympus:

Year Sales (Revenue) Operating Profit Mirrorless Units Sold
2025 ¥36.3 billion -¥1.6 billion 120,000
2024 ¥36.6 billion -¥1.2 billion 130,000
2023 ¥29.2 billion -¥210 million –
2022 ¥28.2 billion -¥640 million –
2021 ¥21.9 billion -¥1.8 billion –

Sales essentially flatlined. The operating loss widened. Mirrorless volume slipped by about 10,000 bodies. A separate corporate-data compilation is more precise for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025:

  • Sales: ¥36.619 billion
  • Operating profit: -¥1.242 billion
  • Ordinary profit: -¥1.247 billion
  • Net income: -¥1.403 billion
  • Total assets: ¥33.28 billion (down from ¥41.13 billion a year earlier)
  • Retained earnings: -¥9.0 billion
