Key Products

Growth Drivers

• Continued net sales growth driven by upselling and cross-selling to existing customers and acquisition of new customers (+13.3% year-on-year in H1 FY2026 (ending November 2026))
• Steady buildup of the stock-type revenue base, as indicated by the substantial increase in contract liabilities (up ¥400 million from the end of the prior fiscal year to ¥1,433 million)
• Expanded entry opportunities into the public-sector DX market (central government ministries, independent administrative agencies, local governments) through ISMAP registration of Chohyo DX and Kamiless
• Transition to a full-scale AI adoption phase among companies amid the rapid evolution of generative AI, and continued development of AI-native functions (automatic form generation, AI mapping)
• Strengthened competitiveness through investment in cloud service feature development (¥114 million in acquisition of intangible fixed assets)
• Overall market expansion trend driven by demand for business digitization and labor shortage solutions in the corporate and public-sector cloud services market

Risks

• Platform dependency risk, as the majority of revenue is generated from Salesforce-integrated services, meaning changes in the Salesforce market directly affect business performance
• Downward pressure on profit margins from increased personnel and advertising/promotion expenses accompanying business expansion (SG&A expenses up 16.5% year-on-year in H1 FY2026 (ending November 2026))
• Risk of decelerating growth pace, as indicated by the slowdown in net sales growth rate (from +17.2% year-on-year in the prior-year period to +13.3% in the current interim period)
• Upfront investment burden associated with collaboration with major consulting firms and establishment of dedicated teams to develop the enterprise market
• Note the change in financial flexibility, as the equity ratio declined from 47.6% to 43.9% due in part to treasury stock acquisition (¥61 million)
• Impact on corporate IT investment decisions from a deteriorating macro environment, including U.S. tariff policy, geopolitical risks, and rising energy prices amid escalating tensions in the Middle East
