Recent Overview

In Q1 of FY2026 (ending December 2026), net sales increased 5.0% and operating profit turned positive, improving the earnings structure

Net sales for the first quarter of FY2026 (ending December 2026) (January–March 2026) were ¥591 million (up 5.0% year on year). Compared to the prior-year period, which recorded an operating loss of ¥23 million, an ordinary loss of ¥15 million, and a quarterly net loss of ¥15 million, the current period achieved a turnaround to profitability across all profit line items, with operating profit of ¥34 million, ordinary profit of ¥39 million, and quarterly net profit of ¥29 million. While cost of sales remained roughly flat year on year at ¥424 million (versus ¥427 million in the prior-year period), selling, general and administrative expenses were reduced by approximately 16.6%, from ¥160 million in the prior-year period to ¥133 million, which was the main driver of the profit improvement. In addition to deepening relationships with existing clients and acquiring new clients in the Fintech-related business, the expansion of new order intake in new service areas such as banking, insurance, securities, PMO, IT risk, and security also contributed. There has been no change to the full-year earnings forecast (net sales of ¥2,400 million, operating profit of ¥60 million), and the Q1 progress rate stands at 24.7% for net sales and 56.7% for operating profit.

Key Products

Growth Drivers

• Progress in establishing the service delivery framework in new service areas such as banking, insurance, securities, PMO, IT risk, and security, along with the expansion of new order intake and the full-scale contribution to earnings
• Steady order trends driven by deepening relationships with existing clients (upselling) and acquisition of new clients in the Fintech-related business
• Improvement in the profit structure through greater efficiency in selling, general and administrative expenses (reduced by approximately 16.6% year on year in Q1 of FY2026, ending December 2026)
• Rising demand for consulting services against the backdrop of the medium-term expansion of the domestic DX market (projected to reach a scale of ¥9,266.6 billion by 2030)
• Competitive advantage through specialization amid the projected expansion of the domestic consulting market to a scale of ¥1,283.2 billion by 2029

Risks

• Risk of dependence on a specific customer due to revenue concentration with NTT DOCOMO (51.6% of net sales composition in FY2025, ended December 2025)
• Risk of talent shortages due to intensifying competition for hiring and retaining highly specialized consultants
• While ¥34 million of the full-year operating profit forecast of ¥60 million was recorded in Q1, uncertainty remains as to whether the full-year forecast will be achieved, depending on order trends in the second half
• Cost increase pressure from a weaker yen and elevated energy prices, along with the risk of reduced capital investment by client companies
• The withdrawal of the financial plan within the medium-term management plan (announced January 21, 2026) has left medium- to long-term quantitative targets unclear
• The impact on client companies' investment decisions arising from geopolitical risk, uncertainty over the future direction of U.S. monetary policy, and changes in domestic interest rate trends affecting financial and capital markets
