Business

Techno Horizon Co., Ltd. is composed of two segments: the "Imaging & IT Business," which offers imaging ICT equipment such as document cameras and interactive whiteboards along with cybersecurity and office solutions, and the "Robotics Business," which handles FA-related equipment, robot controllers, X-ray inspection systems, and the like. Domestically, the company's main customer base spans the educational ICT, corporate DX, and municipal DX markets, while overseas it has built a global structure with local subsidiaries in the United States, Europe, ASEAN, and China. Following the merger of four companies in 2021, the company transitioned from a company-based system to a business division system, and it has continued to expand its business domains through more than 19 M&A transactions since 2017. Consolidated net sales for FY2026 (ending March 2026) were ¥51,381 million.

Business Model

In the Imaging & IT Business, the company sells in-house developed optical and imaging equipment both domestically and overseas, while building up service-type revenue through software contract development, cloud services, cybersecurity distribution, and other offerings. In the Robotics Business, the company sells in-house manufactured FA equipment and inspection systems to manufacturers both in Japan and overseas, and enhances profitability by improving the product mix toward higher value-added products. In both businesses, the company pursues a strategy of acquiring new market areas, technologies, and customer bases through M&A, and enhancing added value through group synergies.

Company Strengths

The document camera (visual presenter) is a product cultivated over many years under the ELMO brand, which traces its origins to Sakaki Shokai, founded in 1921, and the company captured demand for ICT equipment replacement throughout the fiscal year in connection with the second phase of the GIGA School Program. Order intake in the Imaging & IT Business grew 59.0% year on year, and the order backlog expanded sharply, up 198.9% year on year, demonstrating the depth of the customer base in the education market.

Pacific Tech Pte. Ltd., headquartered in Singapore, operates a cybersecurity distribution business in Singapore and Malaysia, and made a significant contribution to improving group profitability in FY2026 (ending March 2026). Its strength lies in its own regional network, which has bases throughout ASEAN centered on ESCO Pte. Ltd., and which continues to expand its sales channels, including the establishment of subsidiaries in Vietnam, South Korea, and Cambodia.

Since 2017, the company has executed more than 19 M&A deals both domestically and overseas, acquiring the technology and customer base of soldering robots (Apollo Seiko), X-ray inspection systems, IT consulting, and professional work DX, among others. In FY2026 (ending March 2026) as well, the company newly consolidated Ainetcom, Universcape, and Collaboration and Communication Technologies Private Limited, continuing to expand the group's business scope and earnings base.

ENVALITH's Perspective

Net sales came to ¥51,380 million (up 1.5% year-on-year), a modest increase, while operating profit reached ¥2,332 million (versus ¥373 million in the prior period) and profit attributable to owners of parent improved substantially to ¥2,462 million (versus a net loss of ¥616 million in the prior period). The main drivers were the simultaneous improvement in gross profit margin (from 20.4% in the prior period to 22.8% in the current period) and the reduction in SG&A expenses (from ¥9,979 million in the prior period to ¥9,358 million in the current period). The expansion of overseas business by Pacific Tech Pte. Ltd. and domestic demand for renewal of Educational ICT Equipment (as external factors) provided tailwinds.

The Robotics Business posted net sales of ¥13,611 million (down 8.0% year-on-year), a decline, but turned profitable with operating profit of ¥461 million (versus an operating loss of ¥599 million in the prior period). However, against a backdrop of economic stagnation and weak capital expenditure demand in the Chinese market (as external factors), the performance of the two local subsidiaries has remained sluggish, and ¥140 million in business structure improvement expenses was recorded. The business alliance with Nidec Advanced Technology for X-ray Inspection Systems (High-end, for Semiconductor Manufacturing) is still at the stage of aiming for full-scale sales expansion from next fiscal year onward, and the timing and scale of its profit contribution remain uncertain factors.

The consolidated earnings forecast for FY2027 (ending March 2027) calls for net sales of ¥55,000 million (up 7.0% year-on-year) and operating profit of ¥3,000 million (up 28.6% year-on-year), representing higher sales and operating profit, while ordinary profit is expected to be ¥2,750 million (down 4.7% year-on-year) and profit attributable to owners of parent is expected to be ¥1,700 million (down 31.0% year-on-year), a decline. The main factor appears to be the disappearance of extraordinary income recorded in FY2026 (ending March 2026), including gain on sale of shares of affiliated companies of ¥495 million and gain on step acquisition of ¥144 million (totaling ¥639 million), and it will be necessary to continue scrutinizing the sustainability of the underlying operating profit level and the trend of extraordinary gains and losses.

Growth Strategy

Pursuing growth through four pillars: M&A, ASEAN expansion, GIGA School Program Phase 2, and Robotics Business profitability turnaround

Capturing demand for ICT equipment replacement—such as interactive whiteboards and document cameras—driven by GIGA School Program Phase 2, the company aims to expand market share and improve profitability by strengthening its solution proposal and support capabilities to enhance added value. Throughout FY2026 (ending March 2026), this business supported the group's earnings base.

Pacific Tech Pte. Ltd., which operates a cybersecurity distribution business in Singapore and Malaysia, made a significant contribution to improving group profitability in FY2026 (ending March 2026). The company will continue to expand its sales channels in response to growing security demand.

The company implemented fundamental structural reforms of its China operations (optimizing the sales structure and improving management efficiency), achieving an operating profit of ¥461 million in FY2026 (ending March 2026). The expansion of sales channels for high-end X-ray inspection systems for semiconductor manufacturing, through a business alliance with Nidec Advanced Technology, is at the stage of aiming for full-scale sales growth from next fiscal year onward.

In FY2026 (ending March 2026), the company newly consolidated Universcape Corporation and Collaboration and Communication Technologies Private Limited, among others, while divesting Ad-Science Co., Ltd. to optimize its portfolio. Going forward, the company will continue to draw out the strengths of each newly acquired company to enhance added value and maximize corporate value.
