TOKYO (Reuters) - SoftBank Group Corp 9984.T said it expects to book a 600 billion yen ($5.74 billion) pre-tax profit this financial year from the sale of its stake in Finnish mobile game company Supercell to China's Tencent Holdings Ltd 0700.HK.
SoftBank said the sale of its stake in the maker of the hit “Clash of Clans” will yield a return of around 2.9 times its original investment.
