Business

Treasure Factory Co., Ltd. is a company specializing in the reuse (secondhand goods) business, founded in 1995. The company operates six business formats—"Treasure Factory," "Trefac Style," "Brand Collect," "Trefac Sports Outdoor," "Uzurera," and "Trefac Market"—running a group total of 293 stores as of the end of FY2025 (ending February 2025). It handles a wide range of items including clothing, fashion accessories, home appliances, furniture, and hobby goods, combining three purchasing channels—in-store drop-off, home visit, and home delivery—with its own e-commerce platforms (such as Trefac ONLINE) to build an integrated procurement and sales system. Through six consolidated subsidiaries, the company also operates peripheral businesses such as rental, real estate, and systems, and is expanding overseas into Thailand and Taiwan. Its main customers span a broad range, from general consumers with strong cost-consciousness to inbound demand.

Business Model

The core of profitability lies in the "spread between purchase price and selling price." The company purchases used items from general customers through three channels—in-store, home-visit, and mail-in—and sells them through physical stores and its own EC site. The gross profit margin remained at a high level of 59.1% in FY2025 (ended February 2025). The EC sales ratio reached approximately 15% of consolidated sales (up 26.0% year on year), and the synergy between physical stores and the EC site is expanding customer touchpoints. The company also utilizes wholesale procurement and its own auctions, forming a structure aimed at stabilizing product assortment and improving inventory turnover.

Company Strengths

Sales expanded approximately 81% over three years, from ¥23,313 million in FY2022 (ending February 2022) to ¥42,207 million in FY2025 (ending February 2025). Operating profit increased roughly fourfold over the same period, from ¥995 million to ¥4,035 million, reaching a new record high in FY2025 (ending February 2025). ROE of 28.7% and ordinary profit margin of 9.7% demonstrate a strong balance of capital efficiency and profitability.

The company operates six business formats—general merchandise, apparel, branded secondhand clothing, sports goods, low-price apparel, and interior goods—running a total of 293 stores group-wide as of the end of FY2025 (ending February 2025). Standalone existing-store sales rose a solid 7.9% year on year, driven by high-growth categories including apparel (+23.5%), fashion accessories (+24.8%), and hobby goods (+42.5%). The diversity of business formats enables the company to capture a wide range of customer segments and merchandise categories.

The company has built a multi-channel procurement system combining in-store walk-in purchases with on-site buying via centralized call-center reception (up 36.3% year on year) and nationwide home-pickup purchasing (up 12.0% year on year). It also procures merchandise from vendors through logistics centers in the Kanto and Kansai regions, securing consolidated merchandise purchases of ¥17,957 million in FY2025 (ending February 2025), up 21.2% year on year.

ENVALITH's Perspective

Operating profit for 1Q FY2027 (ending February 2027) was ¥1,855 million, up 24.0% year on year, marking a record high for a first quarter and exceeding the initial plan. In response, both the first-half cumulative and full-year earnings forecasts were revised upward (full-year sales of ¥54,975 million, operating profit of ¥5,333 million). Gross profit margin also improved from the same period last year, indicating that the dual engines of accelerated store openings and existing-store growth are functioning well.

While EC sales maintained high growth of +30.8% year on year, all categories posted double-digit growth: apparel (+14.6%), electronics (+15.9%), fashion accessories (+23.2%), and hobby goods (+20.6%). Low dependence on any specific category confirms the breadth of underlying demand. As an external factor, yen depreciation and inbound demand have boosted demand for high-priced items such as branded goods, which warrants attention as a risk factor should the currency trend reverse.

Short-term borrowings at the end of 1Q FY2027 (ending February 2027) increased to ¥5,229 million (up ¥1,208 million from the previous fiscal year-end), bringing total interest-bearing debt (short-term borrowings + current portion of long-term borrowings + long-term borrowings) to ¥8,635 million. Interest expenses doubled to ¥22 million from ¥10 million in the same period last year, and the impact of rising financial costs amid higher long-term interest rates on future profit margins warrants ongoing monitoring. The equity ratio remains at a sound 49.3%, but the trend in reliance on borrowing amid accelerated store openings will be a key point of evaluation.

Growth Strategy

Accelerating medium-term growth through four pillars: aggressive store openings, strengthened EC operations, expanded multi-channel purchasing, and overseas expansion

In Q1 of FY2027 (ending February 2027), the company achieved a net increase of 12 directly-operated stores (zero closures), expanding the group total to 331 stores (up from 319 at the end of the prior fiscal year). Store openings continued primarily for Trefac Style in key market areas including Kanto, Tokai, and Kansai. The company plans to maintain accelerated store openings for the full fiscal year.

EC sales continued to grow strongly, up 30.8% year-on-year in Q1 of FY2027 (ending February 2027). The company aims to maximize sales across both stores and EC through the diversion of store inventory to EC and strengthened coordination with purchasing channels.

Double-digit growth was achieved across all channels: in-store purchases (+17.7% on a non-consolidated basis), home-delivery purchases (+16.8%), and on-site (visiting) purchases (+28.0%). The high growth in on-site purchases was particularly notable, and the company will strengthen its sourcing base through continued investment in non-store channels.

The company operates a total of 9 stores overseas: 6 in Thailand (up from 5 at the end of the prior fiscal year) and 3 in Taiwan. One new store was opened in Thailand in Q1 of FY2027 (ending February 2027), continuing overseas expansion. The company aims to capture reuse demand across the Asian region.
