Business

Fiber Gate Inc. is a communications service company founded in 2000 and listed in 2018. The corporate group consists of 7 companies, with its core business being the Home Use Business (83% of net sales), which provides an "unlimited free internet" service for owners of residential complexes. The company also operates the Business Use Business, offering free Wi-Fi for corporations and facilities as well as building commercial network infrastructure, along with a Real Estate Business and a Renewable Energy Business. Its distinguishing feature is a vertically integrated model that handles everything end-to-end, from in-house development of communication equipment (via its Taiwanese subsidiary) to installation, operation, and support. Consolidated net sales for FY2025 (ended June 2025) were ¥13,070 million. The company is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market (following a market segment change in July 2025).

Business Model

The core of revenue is monthly recurring revenue (stock revenue) based on long-term contracts with property owners. By internalizing everything from in-house development and manufacturing of communication equipment (via its Taiwan subsidiary) to fiber-optic line installation, Wi-Fi setup, maintenance, and call center support, the company suppresses external procurement costs while directly reflecting customer needs in its business strategy. In recent years, the expanded adoption of the equipment outright-sale method has increased first-year costs, while the company is advancing a structural transformation expected to improve the profit margin of future stock revenue and reduce the tax burden through suppression of depreciable assets.

Company Strengths

From communication equipment development and manufacturing (Taiwan subsidiary Feibo Wangtong Technology Co., Ltd.) to fiber-optic line installation, Wi-Fi setup, operation and maintenance, and multilingual call center support, the company completes all processes within its own group. This achieves reductions in outsourcing costs and rapid reflection of customer needs in the business, serving as a differentiating factor from competitors.

Recurring revenue from long-term contracts for free internet services targeting apartment buildings continues to accumulate steadily, with Home Use Business net sales for FY2025 (ended June 2025) reaching ¥10,864 million (up 4.6% year on year). The effect of accumulated stock revenue continues, forming a stable revenue base that accounts for over 83% of total company net sales.

As of the end of FY2025 (ended June 2025), the equity ratio stood at 53.1% (improved from 44.3% at the previous fiscal year-end), and net assets were ¥6,502 million (up 11.4% from the previous fiscal year-end). Long-term borrowings (including current portion) decreased by ¥1,296 million, compressing total liabilities to ¥5,641 million. Operating cash flow was solid at ¥3,156 million, and the stability of the financial base has been enhanced.

ENVALITH's Perspective

Cumulative revenue for the nine months of Q3 FY2026 (ending June 2026) of ¥10,361 million represents 74.8% progress against the full-year forecast of ¥13,850 million. Meanwhile, operating profit of ¥1,486 million reached only 74.3% of the full-year forecast of ¥2,000 million. The margin decline trend stemming from changes in customer composition has continued, with gross profit margin falling from 41.9% in the same period of the previous year to 40.1%. Operating profit of ¥514 million is required in Q4 alone, and the key factor will be the realization of real estate held for sale (balance of ¥669 million) in the Real Estate Business, among other items.

The Other (Renewable Energy Business) segment saw revenue expand rapidly to ¥163 million (up 483.7% year on year), while segment loss widened significantly to ¥106 million (versus a loss of ¥5 million in the same period of the previous year). Following the consolidation of PDI as a subsidiary (August 2025), the company has additionally acquired Smart Green (April 2026, acquisition consideration of ¥250 million), and upfront investment costs are weighing on profit for the time being. As an external factor, the societal expansion of demand for renewable energy is a tailwind, but the timing and scale of monetization remain a source of uncertainty for medium-term performance.

The full-year revenue forecast was revised downward by ¥200 million (1.4%), from ¥14,050 million to ¥13,850 million. While the operating profit forecast of ¥2,000 million was left unchanged, this is attributed to a revision toward more conservative estimates following a review of M&A-related expenses, which may suggest an underlying downside in actual business progress. Segment profit in the communications business of ¥2,316 million (up 3.5% year on year) remains solid, but an adjustment amount of ¥745 million in general and administrative expenses is compressing profit, keeping management of head-office costs a continued point of focus.

Growth Strategy

Transition to a next-generation infrastructure model through the vertically integrated 'Telecomenergy' strategy combining telecommunications and renewable energy

The company continues to expand stock-type revenue through steady accumulation of installations in rental properties, while working to raise average revenue per customer through focused sales efforts on cross-sell products such as Network Camera and target areas including Communication Services for Medical, Nursing Care, and Schools. The revenue growth effect from Free Wi-Fi Service projects also contributes to boosting profit levels.

Centered on OGL, the company has welcomed PDI (Solar EPC, made a subsidiary in August 2025, acquisition consideration of ¥50 million) and Smart Green (made a subsidiary in April 2026, acquisition consideration of ¥250 million) into the group, building a framework capable of providing integrated design, construction, and maintenance services for solar power generation. The company will accelerate expansion into areas with high demand for stable energy supply, such as hospitals and factories.

Under the new slogan 'Lead The "Telecomenergy"', the company leverages its existing customer base of approximately 50,000 buildings receiving communication services to provide solar panels and storage batteries together with communication services as an integrated package. By appealing to the value of self-sufficient infrastructure during disasters and contributing to carbon offsetting, the company aims to establish a new revenue source for apartment complexes and corporate customers.

Effective July 1, 2025, the sales structure was reorganized from a business-based to a regional-based structure, integrating the 'Home Use Business' and 'Business Use Business' into the 'Communications Business'. This aims to improve efficiency in region-focused sales activities and to unify cross-selling efforts between communications and energy.
