Business

Business Model
Products manufactured at APAC production facilities are sold to enterprises, government agencies, educational institutions, and other customers through sales subsidiaries in Japan, the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. In Japan, indirect sales through distributors such as Daiwabo Information System (16.3% of net sales) form the main sales channel. In addition to product sales, the company is driving its evolution into a solutions-based business that supports the enhancement of overall IT infrastructure value, including security. Annual R&D expenses of ¥4,958 million are invested to continuously introduce high-value-added products, aiming to improve profitability.

In FY2025, Japan segment revenue was ¥33,222 million (up 10.1% year on year), accounting for approximately 67% of the group total. Sales of Switch Products and Wireless LAN Products grew on the back of expanding demand from local governments and the education sector.

ENVALITH's Perspective
Performance Trend
Revenue increased for five consecutive periods, from ¥33,265 million in FY2021 to ¥49,950 million in FY2025. Operating profit also expanded to ¥4,229 million in FY2025, but the full-year forecast for FY2026 calls for operating profit of ¥3,300 million (down 22.0% year on year), marking a shift to a profit decline. On the other hand, results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2026 were strong, with revenue of ¥13,121 million (up 2.3% year on year), operating profit of ¥1,440 million (up 19.9%), and net income attributable to owners of the parent of ¥1,012 million (up 95.4%). The large increase in net income was driven by an external factor: a foreign exchange loss of ¥285 million in the same period of the previous year turned into a foreign exchange gain of ¥45 million in the current period. Total assets stood at ¥50,891 million, with an equity ratio of 42.2%, indicating a stable financial base.
Growth Strategy
Pursuing sustainable growth through three pillars: concentration on core businesses, human capital investment, and shareholder returns
The company aims to maintain stable growth in domestic sales by accumulating demand across multiple areas, including NEXT GIGA-related projects in the education sector, hospital network renewals in the healthcare sector, and network renewal demand from municipalities. In the first quarter of FY2026 (ending March 2026)... wait, correction: FY2026 (ending December 2026), Japan Segment sales reached ¥9,568 million (up 6.2% year on year), and initiatives are progressing steadily.
Allied Telesis Capital Corp. transferred its IP Triple Play Services business at the end of February 2026, enabling concentration of management resources on the network equipment sales and solutions business. Extraordinary gains are expected to be recorded upon completion of contract renewal procedures with relevant U.S. authorities. This selection and concentration of the business portfolio is expected to contribute to improving the earnings structure.
In EMEA, inquiries continue against the backdrop of expanding defense budgets in European countries, and the company is focusing on project development alongside progress in strengthening its sales structure. In the Americas, project delays due to the U.S. government shutdown are viewed as a temporary factor, and the company aims to continue winning large-scale projects such as those for the Canadian Department of National Defence. In the first quarter of FY2026 (ending December 2026), sales declined in both EMEA and APAC (Asia & Oceania), with recovery expected in the latter half of the year.
The annual dividend forecast for FY2026 (ending December 2026) is ¥9.00 (an increase from ¥8.00 in the previous fiscal year). In March 2026, the company acquired 553,600 shares of treasury stock (acquisition amount of ¥154 million), continuing shareholder returns. The company has set forth a policy of balancing sustainable growth with shareholder returns based on its Medium-Term Management Plan through 2028.
