Value HR Co.,Ltd.

Business Details

Based on the in-house developed healthcare management platform "Value Cafeteria® System," the Company provides health checkup scheduling and results management, Cafeteria Plan, specific health guidance, health checkup administrative outsourcing, and operational support for health checkup institutions to health insurance societies, corporations, and individuals. The business consists of two main segments, the "Cafeteria Business" and the "Healthcare Business," with system usage fees and administrative outsourcing fees as the main revenue sources. This business accounted for approximately 81% of consolidated net sales in the first quarter of FY2026 (ending December 2026).

Recent Overview

Net sales increased, but operating income decreased 15.9% YoY due to a temporary decline caused by higher personnel expenses

In the first quarter of FY2026 (ending December 2026), the Value Cafeteria Business achieved higher net sales of ¥2,082 million (+13.1% YoY), driven by steady progress in acquiring new customers and expanded orders for health management implementation support services and other services for existing customers. On the other hand, personnel expenses increased due to the restructuring of the workforce following enhanced hiring in the second half of the prior fiscal year, resulting in a decrease in operating income to ¥401 million (-15.9% YoY). The Company explains that the cost structure is transitioning toward a normalization phase as temporary staffing and outsourcing costs are reduced and in-house capabilities are expanded.
