Park24 Group is a transportation infrastructure services company that develops parking lot operation and management as well as mobility services both in Japan and overseas. In Japan, the company has built a parking network of 19,679 locations and 697,375 spaces under the

Business Model

The Domestic Parking Business secures stable earnings by subleasing or taking on management contracts for idle land from landowners, operating it as hourly rental (Times Parking) and monthly contract parking. The Mobility Business rolls out "Times Car," which combines car sharing and rental cars, nationwide, earning membership fees and usage income. The structure aims to leverage the member and location networks of both businesses as a mutual customer referral base, targeting improved profitability as scale expands. For FY2025 (ending October 2025), revenue composition was ¥193,635 million for Domestic Parking Business, ¥128,158 million for Mobility Business, and ¥84,373 million for Overseas Parking Business.

Company Strengths

As of the end of the fiscal year ending October 2025, the company operated 19,679 Times Parking (Hourly Rental Parking) locations with 697,375 spaces, and a total of 27,151 parking facilities with 881,545 spaces under management. Against a backdrop of chronic domestic parking supply-demand gaps, the company maintained stable utilization while achieving 1,784 new site developments during FY2025 (ending October 2025). Through selective development expertise, it continues to expand its network while maintaining profitability.

The network expanded rapidly, with Times Car dedicated vehicles reaching 63,880 units (+25.1% year on year), rental locations reaching 26,073 (+30.6% year on year), and membership reaching 3,616 thousand people (+19.2% year on year). Through a unique service format that combines car sharing and car rental, the company meets a wide range of usage needs, recording revenue of ¥128,506 million and operating profit of ¥14,888 million for FY2025 (ending October 2025).

Cash flow from operating activities remained high at ¥62,880 million for FY2025 (ending October 2025) (up ¥8,704 million year on year). The net D/E ratio improved from 1.07x to 0.88x, and shareholders' equity expanded to ¥104,285 million. The company has steadily restored its financial base, which was impaired during the COVID-19 pandemic, achieving a balance between growth investment and financial soundness.

ENVALITH's Perspective

Interim net income attributable to owners of the parent for the six months ended FY2026 (ending March 2026) surged to ¥29,657 million (up 495.3% year on year), but this was mainly due to a one-time tax effect of ¥31,087 million in income tax adjustments (gain) associated with the restructuring of the UK business. After recording extraordinary losses of ¥12,102 million (loss on affiliate company liquidation of ¥8,724 million and loss on sale of affiliate shares of ¥3,302 million), income before income taxes stood at only ¥4,539 million. Underlying earnings power should therefore be evaluated based on operating profit of ¥17,295 million (up 9.6% year on year).

As a result of the UK business restructuring and the sale of the Singapore business, revenue from the Overseas Parking Business shrank to ¥33,894 million (down 17.0% year on year), and the total number of managed parking spaces also declined 31.0% from the end of the previous fiscal year to 338,752 spaces. While the elimination of large-scale, long-term lease contract risk is commendable, the role of the overseas business as a growth engine for the group as a whole has diminished significantly. It should also be noted that external factors such as yen depreciation and local currency trends will continue to affect the performance of the remaining overseas operations.

For Times Car, the situation in which supply (vehicles) exceeded demand (members) continued through the end of March 2026, and operating profit of the Mobility Business for the six months ended FY2026 (ending March 2026) rose only slightly to ¥5,917 million (up 1.8% year on year). The reversal of the supply-demand balance as of the interim period-end is a positive development, but whether the improvement in utilization rates will be reflected in full-year results depends on performance in the second half. Acceleration in the second half is essential to achieving the full-year earnings forecast (revenue of ¥411,000 million and operating profit of ¥42,500 million), and the utilization trend of the Mobility Business will be the key factor.

Growth Strategy

Through the expansion and integration of the "four networks" of people, cars, destinations, and parking lots, the company aims to evolve into a mobility service platformer by 2035

New parking lots are, in principle, being made cashless-payment-only, accelerating the transition to next-generation parking facilities utilizing the in-house developed payment machine Times Tower and license plate recognition cameras. In the first half of FY2026 (ending March 2026), 806 units were developed, expanding the number of Times Parking (Hourly Rental Parking) locations to 20,107 sites and 740,652 vehicle spaces. This simultaneously improves the convenience of entry/exit and payment processes while achieving cost efficiency.

The company is pursuing expansion focused on profitability per vehicle through appropriate vehicle space development and vehicle allocation based on demand analysis at the local mesh level. Continued promotional activities such as TV commercials and web advertising are accelerating member acquisition, and as of the end of the first half of FY2026 (ending March 2026), the pace of member growth has come to exceed the pace of vehicle fleet expansion. The number of rental locations expanded to 28,733 (up 10.2% from the previous fiscal year-end).

The UK business has moved away from a model centered on large-scale, long-term lease contracts through liquidation procedures under UK corporate insolvency law, and has been restructured as a small-scale business centered on Times Parking (Country-specific Versions). The Singapore business has completed its sale. As a result of deconsolidating four companies (including PARK24 INTERNATIONAL LIMITED), goodwill decreased by ¥10,378 million. The company aims to maintain steady utilization in the remaining businesses while improving the soundness of its earnings structure.

Through the "Medium-Term Management Plan for FY2027 (ending March 2027)" (a three-year plan) announced in December 2024, the company is promoting the expansion, evolution, and integration of four networks: people (members), cars (mobility), destinations (towns), and parking lots. The company aims to evolve from a transportation infrastructure service company into a mobility service platformer, with the goal of becoming an indispensable presence in society.
