Business

Reiwa Accounting Holdings, Inc. serves listed companies, large enterprises, REITs, SPCs, and medical institutions as its primary clients, with continuous accounting consulting services (Long) as its core business. The company provides end-to-end accounting support, from journal entry input to financial statement preparation and securities report compliance, distinguishing itself through strategic accounting practice support that goes beyond simple bookkeeping outsourcing. Under a group structure that includes 6 consolidated subsidiaries, the company operates its consulting business alongside education and staffing/placement services, and AI-driven system development. It is a growth company that listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Growth Market in December 2024.

Business Model

Consulting operations (Long), which account for 80.7% of revenue, are auto-renewing continuous contracts, boasting an extremely high contract retention rate with a cancellation rate of 0.148% (average for April 2023–March 2026). The business model with large corporate groups begins with a limited scope of work and expands the range of services and number of contracts through trust-building, with average annual fee per client group of approximately ¥28,325 thousand (FY2026, ending March 2026). Project-based Short operations (18.4% of revenue) arise as derivative orders from Long operations, complementing revenue.

Company Strengths

The contract renewal rate for FY2024 (ending March 2024) through FY2026 (ending March 2026) was 99.852% (99.979% for FY2026 (ending March 2026) alone). The number of client groups reached 177 as of the end of March 2026, with the average annual fee for the top 100 companies at approximately ¥48,305 thousand and for the top 10 companies at approximately ¥233,458 thousand, indicating significant room for further deepening. Involvement with nearly half of existing REITs has also contributed to gaining the trust of large corporations.

The operating margin for FY2026 (ending March 2026) was 34.8% (a 4.8-point improvement from 30.0% in the prior period), and the gross profit margin was 58.2% (up from 53.6% in the prior period). While revenue increased 14.6%, the increase in cost of sales was contained to 3.3%, reflecting the highly profitable structure of knowledge-intensive services and the effects of productivity improvement initiatives.

Accounting consulting services for listed and large enterprises can only be provided stably and continuously when a large number of specialists work together. In addition to qualified professionals such as certified public accountants, the Company has developed a large number of professionals through in-house training combining classroom instruction and practical training, and has also established a collaborative framework with its Vietnamese subsidiary (approximately 70 employees, of whom about 20% hold accounting qualifications).

ENVALITH's Perspective

In FY2026 (ending March 2026), profit growth stood out, with operating profit up +33.0% and net profit attributable to owners of the parent up +40.0%, against revenue growth of +14.6%. Meanwhile, the company's forecast for FY2027 (ending March 2027) anticipates a sharp deceleration in profit growth rates, with revenue up +10.4%, operating profit up +8.7%, and net profit up only +1.3%. This appears to reflect the fading of the base effect from listing-related expenses recorded as a one-time cost in the prior period (¥21 million in the prior period), which has fully played out this period, as well as an increase in income tax payments (from ¥288 million in the prior period to ¥576 million in the current period) that is expected to continue into the next fiscal year.

In FY2026 (ending March 2026), the company allocated a total of ¥1,875 million to shareholder returns, comprising ¥1,399 million in dividend payments and ¥476 million in share buybacks, achieving an extremely high payout ratio of 86.0% and a dividend-to-net-assets ratio (DOE) of 42.8%. Cash flow from financing activities reached ¥-1,882 million, and cash and cash equivalents declined to ¥1,788 million at period-end (down from ¥2,406 million in the prior period). The forecast payout ratio for FY2027 (ending March 2027) also remains at a high 85.7%, making the balance between such returns and growth investments (such as system development at Miracle Keiri Co., Ltd.) a key challenge going forward.

In the consulting business, securing and developing specialized personnel is the rate-limiting factor for growth, and there is a risk that intensifying competition for talent and rising labor costs could pressure profit margins. In terms of the external environment, factors such as rising energy prices stemming from the US and Israeli strikes on Iran, yen depreciation and foreign exchange volatility, geopolitical risks in the Middle East and Ukraine, and price inflation could affect corporate activity. On the other hand, the structural market conditions of labor shortages at companies and increasing complexity in accounting operations continue to serve as external factors underpinning demand for the company's services.

Growth Strategy

Pursuing sustainable growth across four axes: deepening existing client relationships, acquiring new clients, building a talent circulation ecosystem through education, and developing systems

Continuously expanding the scope of outsourced work within existing client groups to increase average annual fees per client group. Stable revenue accumulation has been achieved against a backdrop of high contract retention rates, and this remained a key driver of sales growth in FY2026 (ending March 2026) as well.

Continuously acquiring new clients among listed companies and large enterprises to expand the number of contracts. Demand for highly specialized accounting support is rising against a backdrop of corporate labor shortages and increasing complexity of accounting operations, providing a favorable environment for new client acquisition.

Gradually expanding the accounting practice education and staffing/placement business operated by Reiwa Human First Co., Ltd., positioning it as a talent supply source for the consulting business. This pursues both mitigation of personnel acquisition risk and business diversification simultaneously.

Miracle Keiri Co., Ltd., which became a consolidated subsidiary from FY2026 (ending March 2026), is advancing systems development. This is expected to contribute to ongoing productivity improvements in the consulting business, while also being nurtured as an independent business in its own right. Software under construction of ¥58 million was recorded in FY2026 (ending March 2026), indicating that development investment is now in full swing.
