Business

Intertrade Co., Ltd. is a financial IT systems company founded in 1999. Its core business is the Financial Solutions Business (80.2% of sales), centered on the development and maintenance of Securities Dealing Systems, Foreign Exchange Margin Trading Systems, and Crypto Asset Platforms. The company also operates the Business Solutions Business (14.1%), providing IT support and management solutions for general business corporations, and the Healthcare Business (5.7%), which handles health foods and cosmetics derived from Hanabiratake (a type of mushroom). Its main customers are financial institutions such as domestic securities firms, FX brokers, and crypto asset exchange operators. The company is listed on the Standard Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. It has two consolidated subsidiaries (BS-J Co., Ltd. and Intertrade Healthcare Co., Ltd.) and two equity-method affiliates (Digital Asset Markets Co., Ltd. and AndGo Co., Ltd.).

Business Model

In the core Financial Solutions Business, the company adopts a revenue model combining contracted development, license usage fees, and maintenance support contracts for systems used in securities, FX, and crypto asset businesses. While recurring contracts such as licensing and support form a stable revenue base, contracted development projects act as a factor causing sales fluctuations. As of FY2025 (ending September 2025), the order backlog for the Financial Solutions Business stood at ¥912 million. The Business Solutions Business aims for stable revenue growth by expanding the number of companies adopting the management platform "GroupMAN@IT e2". The Healthcare Business operates a direct sales model for health foods and cosmetics.

Company Strengths

Since its founding in 1999, the company has developed specialized expertise in system development for securities firms, and secured contracted projects from existing clients in connection with the Tokyo Stock Exchange's launch of arrowhead 4.0 operations in November 2024. Orders received in the Financial Solutions Business increased 113.9% year on year to ¥1,448 million, and the company has secured an order backlog of ¥912 million as revenue for the following and subsequent periods.

As of the end of FY2025 (ending September 2025), the equity ratio stood at 72.6% and the quick ratio at 321.1%, maintaining a high level of short- and medium-term financial stability. Of total assets of ¥1,481 million, the company held ¥711 million in cash and deposits (48.0% of the composition ratio), and under a funding policy based primarily on internal financing, its reliance on borrowing is low.

In March 2025, the company concluded a strategic partnership with Fireblocks regarding support for WEB3 infrastructure implementation. In April of the same year, it acquired a 25.5% equity stake in AndGo, making it an equity-method affiliate, and established a joint development framework for crypto asset solutions and services utilizing distributed cryptography technology.

ENVALITH's Perspective

Profit attributable to owners of parent for the interim period of FY2026 (ending September 2026) came to ¥124 million, a significant improvement from ¥△39 million in the same period of the prior year, but this was mainly driven by the recognition of a ¥230 million gain on equity interest changes (extraordinary income) associated with a capital increase at Digital Asset Markets. On the other hand, operating profit was ¥0 million (down 96.6% from ¥16 million in the same period of the prior year), and ordinary loss was ¥△95 million, indicating that core business profitability remains at a low level. Since the gain on equity interest changes is largely one-off in nature, a substantial improvement in the second half will be necessary to achieve the full-year earnings forecast (operating profit of ¥100 million).

The full-year consolidated earnings forecast calls for net sales of ¥2,100 million (up 14.3% year on year), operating profit of ¥100 million, and net income of ¥240 million. Interim results showed net sales of ¥868 million (41.3% of the full-year forecast) and operating profit of ¥0 million, meaning the second half must deliver net sales of ¥1,232 million and operating profit exceeding ¥100 million. Given the sales trend over the past five fiscal years (net sales of ¥2,157 million in FY2021 declining to ¥1,836 million in FY2025, marking five consecutive years of declining sales), achieving the full-year forecast appears highly challenging. The earnings forecast has not been revised from the figures announced on November 25, 2025.

In the Healthcare Business, sales for the current interim period were ¥55 million with a segment loss of ¥25 million, a slight deterioration from a loss of ¥24 million in the same period of the prior year, leaving the outlook for profit contribution uncertain. In addition, the equity method investment loss from equity-method affiliates (Digital Asset Markets and AndGo) remained elevated at ¥95 million for the current interim period (versus ¥101 million in the same period of the prior year), continuing to be the main driver of the ordinary loss. With losses from WEB3-related investments continuing to be recorded, the unclear timeline for investment recovery is an important point for investors to note.

Growth Strategy

Growth transition through WEB3 strengthening in Financial Solutions and securing stable order intake across all businesses

Through the strategic partnership with Fireblocks (concluded March 2025) and the group consolidation of AndGo (April 2025), the company is advancing joint development of crypto asset solutions and services utilizing distributed cryptography technology. It is also collaborating with Digital Asset Markets to develop new financial solution services in the WEB3 domain.

The decline stemming from the reversal effect of the enhancement work associated with the launch of TSE arrowhead 4.0 was offset by new acquisitions of contract development projects. In the current interim period, sales increased due to growth in contract development projects and other work, securing ¥694 million, or 101.8% of the same period of the previous year. The company aims to continue capturing DX investment demand from financial institutions to maintain and expand a stable revenue base.

The company is rolling out its new product "Estro Rich Pure," which clearly states the functional properties of Hanabiratake, to strengthen its appeal in the femcare supplement market. In the current interim period, sales lagged behind plan, with revenue reaching only ¥55 million, or 100.8% of the same period of the previous year, and a segment loss of ¥25 million continued.

Through cost structure improvements such as personnel expense reductions, the segment loss for the current interim period improved significantly to ¥6 million, down from ¥21 million in the same period of the previous year. Increased revenue from the On-site Support Service (Engineer Dispatch) also contributed. Recovery in contract development and license usage fees for the flagship "GroupMAN@IT e2" is key to achieving profitability.
