Business
Adventure, Inc. operates a platform enabling online comparison and booking of domestic and international travel products—including airline tickets, accommodations, and optional tours—centered on "skyticket," an online travel booking site launched in 2008. The company adopts an online-only business model without physical stores, targeting individual travelers as its primary customers. It advances its Travel Business and Investment Business through a group of 19 companies, including 18 consolidated subsidiaries. The company has established overseas bases mainly in Southeast Asia (South Korea, Bangladesh, India, the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, etc.), pursuing international expansion with the aim of becoming a Global OTA.
Business Model
Adopts an intermediary model connecting travel suppliers such as airlines and accommodation facilities with consumers. It has a net revenue-type structure that earns revenue (¥25,082 million) relative to cost of sales (FY2025: ¥54,668 million). It optimizes customer acquisition costs through proprietary marketing know-how without using advertising agencies, and enhances cost efficiency by improving repeat usage rates through UI/UX improvements. In addition to airline tickets, it is diversifying revenue through the expansion of "other" products such as accommodation and tours (revenue up 28.1% year on year).
Company Strengths
The company has built a system development and modification framework driven by in-house engineers, enabling rapid response, and optimizes customer acquisition costs through proprietary marketing know-how without relying on advertising agencies. Systemization supporting lean, store-less operations sustains cost competitiveness.
In the Travel Business, revenue from "Other" (non-airline-ticket) products grew 28.1% year on year to ¥14,319 million, with gross merchandise value up 31.1% year on year to ¥20,848 million, representing high growth. The business is moving away from dependence on airline tickets, and diversification of the revenue structure is progressing.
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of FY2025 stood at ¥16,345 million, accounting for roughly 60% of total assets of ¥27,462 million. The net loss was mainly attributable to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge, and the company secured positive operating cash flow of ¥2,221 million.
ENVALITH's Perspective
Performance Trend
Cumulative revenue for the first three quarters of FY2026 (ending June 2026) (July 2025 to March 2026) came to ¥19,688 million (+0.6% year-on-year), only a slight increase. Meanwhile, cost of sales rose sharply to ¥8,421 million (from ¥7,237 million in the same period of the prior year), causing the gross margin to decline. As an external factor, cost increases driven by inflation directly hit the profitability of the Travel Business, resulting in a sharp decline in earnings: operating profit of ¥1,389 million (-35.4% year-on-year) and quarterly profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥676 million (-45.0% year-on-year). Looking at the trend over the past five fiscal periods, after recording an operating loss of ¥1,156 million and a net loss of ¥1,712 million in FY2025 due to goodwill impairment, FY2026 is in a phase of recovery to profitability, but has not yet achieved a full-fledged recovery in profitability.
Growth Strategy
Establishing a Global OTA through M&A, skyticket expansion, and overseas development
Three companies (Five Star Corporation, Five Star Corporation Tokyo, and Island Cleaners) were newly consolidated during the cumulative nine months of the third quarter. Goodwill increased to ¥2,999 million, and the business expansion strategy through acquisitions continues to be executed.
The company continues UI/UX improvements, service enhancements, and multilingual support to capture travel demand. In terms of market environment, the number of foreign visitor nights has expanded, up 8.2% year on year, making the capture of inbound demand a key challenge. Travel Business revenue increased only slightly, by +1.3% year on year, and accelerated growth is required.
The company continues to invest in companies with growth potential and expected capital returns, but in the cumulative nine months of the third quarter, it recorded a segment loss of ¥21 million due to deterioration in the business conditions of investees. The balance of operating investment securities stood at ¥777 million. Improvement in the business conditions of investees is key to earnings contribution.
The full-year forecast calls for revenue of ¥26,000 million (+2.5% year on year), operating profit of ¥1,800 million, and profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥1,000 million. Operating profit of ¥1,389 million was recorded for the cumulative nine months of the third quarter, requiring an additional ¥411 million to be accumulated in the remaining quarter. No revision has been made to the forecast.
