Business

Nihon Information Create Co., Ltd. upholds the corporate philosophy of "creating true value that connects people, the future, and digital technology, and contributing to society." Targeting real estate management companies and brokerage firms as its primary customers, the company provides SaaS-based cloud services structured around two pillars: "Brokerage Solutions," which support the entire brokerage workflow from property sourcing to customer acquisition, applications, and contracts, and "Management Solutions," which cover the full scope of rental property management operations. With a community-based consulting system spanning 28 locations nationwide, the company leverages a network of approximately 56,000 real estate brokerage businesses as its foundation to promote DX across the entire real estate industry. It listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Mothers market (now the Growth Market) in July 2020.

Business Model

Revenue is divided into initial revenue (license fees and setup fees at the time of implementation) and running revenue (monthly usage fees and maintenance fees). In FY2025 (ended June 2025), running revenue maintained high growth, with brokerage solutions reaching ¥1,926 million (up 23.0% year on year) and management solutions reaching ¥2,020 million (up 22.3% year on year). Approximately 78% of total revenue is composed of stock-type (recurring) revenue, forming a structure in which monthly subscription fees accumulate steadily due to a low and stable monthly churn rate of 0.4%. The company aims to increase per-customer revenue through upselling and cross-selling to existing customers.

Company Strengths

The monthly churn rate at the end of FY2025 (ending June 2025) remained as low as 0.4%, as data linkage synergies across the one-stop service lineup raise customers' switching costs. As a result, recurring revenue accounts for approximately 78% of total revenue, forming a stable financial foundation.

The company covers the entire real estate business workflow, from property sourcing (ReaPro BB) to customer acquisition (WebManagerPro/Property Data Linkage), electronic contracts, leasing management (Chintai Kakumei), and the tenant/owner apps. Data linkage across services enhances convenience and creates a structure that discourages switching to competitors.

The company operates 28 locations nationwide (as of June 30, 2025), from Hokkaido to Kagoshima, with sales consultants providing proposals and support through on-site visits. Advice tailored to region-specific customs and prompt on-site response in emergencies contribute to higher customer satisfaction, serving as a differentiating factor from competitors.

ENVALITH's Perspective

Full-year guidance for FY2026 (ending June 2026) calls for revenue of ¥5,800 million and operating profit of ¥1,200 million. Cumulative nine-month (Q1–Q3) results were revenue of ¥3,818 million (65.8% progress) and operating profit of ¥432 million (36.0% progress). Revenue progress is broadly on track, but the low operating profit progress rate implies that ¥768 million in operating profit must be recorded in the remaining single quarter (Q4). Even allowing for seasonality in which initial license fees for management solutions concentrate at fiscal year-end, the high degree of reliance on Q4 warrants continued monitoring from the standpoint of achievement certainty.

Against cumulative Q3 operating profit of ¥432 million, ordinary profit was ¥504 million, exceeding it by ¥72 million. The breakdown of non-operating income consists mainly of non-recurring items such as insurance refunds of ¥34 million, foreign exchange gains of ¥24 million, and subsidy income of ¥10 million. Continuity of these items into subsequent periods is uncertain, and an operating-profit-based analysis is more appropriate for evaluating underlying earnings power. On the other hand, interest expense was a mere ¥0 million, reflecting a virtually debt-free management structure and high financial soundness.

On the balance sheet, software-in-progress declined by ¥199 million, from ¥1,337 million at the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥1,138 million at the end of the current Q3, while software (completed) increased by ¥414 million, from ¥102 million to ¥516 million. Transfers associated with the completion of development are progressing, and the resulting increase in amortization burden could weigh on operating profit going forward. In terms of the market environment, demand for real estate DX remains at high levels, but the balance between the pace of recovery on development investment and rising amortization expenses will be key to the medium-term profit margin.

Growth Strategy

Pursuing sustainable growth along three axes: expansion of brokerage MRR, deepening of management solution share, and utilization of AI/data

Centered on the inter-agent property distribution services ReaPro and ReaPro BB, the company is promoting cross-selling to peripheral services such as customer acquisition, electronic contracts, and CRM. Monthly usage fees from paying customers have accumulated steadily, reaching ¥1,479 million on a cumulative basis for the third quarter. The adoption of a usage-based billing model is also designed to allow revenue to automatically accumulate as usage expands.

In addition to acquiring new customers for the flagship product Chintai Kakumei, the company is actively rolling out version-up proposals for Chintai Kakumei 11, released in August 2025, to existing customers. While maintaining a low and stable churn rate, the company aims to raise customer unit prices through option additions and upselling. Cumulative management solutions revenue for the third quarter reached ¥2,267 million.

Through AI-driven services such as Owner Proposal AI Robo II, the company supports the automation of communication between tenants and owners. It aims to capture demand for automation and sophistication of business processes leveraging technological innovations, including generative AI, and to leverage this into providing options to existing customers and acquiring new customers. The transfer of software-in-progress to the main software account is underway, and the monetization of development investment is progressing.
