Business

Asahi Information Service Co., Ltd. was founded in 1962 and is a dedicated information services company listed on the Standard Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Under its vision of "supporting the development of the ICT society through valuable 'services' and 'people'", the company operates in three segments: network services, systems development, and systems operation. Its major clients are leading companies in the automotive-related sector (Toyota Systems, its largest client, accounting for 23.7% of net sales) and the finance and insurance sectors. Centered on its Tokyo head office, the company has locations in Osaka, Nagoya, Yokohama, Toyota, and other cities, providing IT services on a nationwide scale. Net sales for FY2026 (ending March 2026) were ¥16,548 million.

Business Model

Network services segment accounts for approximately 84% of net sales, with on-site resident services such as open-system server and network construction, operation management, and security forming the core of revenue. The company continues to invest in engineer recruitment, training, and wage improvement, aiming to raise unit prices through enhanced client proposal activities and improved contract terms. The cost of sales ratio was 77.4% (an improvement of 0.8 percentage points year on year), with personnel expenses and outsourcing costs as the main cost components.

Company Strengths

From FY2022 (ending March 2022) to FY2026 (ending March 2026), revenue expanded for five consecutive periods, from ¥12,971 million to ¥16,548 million. Operating profit also increased consistently, from ¥1,248 million to ¥1,645 million, while net income for the period grew from ¥863 million to ¥1,276 million over the same period. The company has a track record of maintaining growth in both revenue and profit even amid economic fluctuations.

The equity ratio as of the end of FY2026 (ending March 2026) stood at 79.9%, maintaining a level of approximately 79-80% for five consecutive periods. Interest-bearing debt consisted only of ¥210 million in short-term borrowings, with a cash flow to interest-bearing debt ratio of 0.2 years and an interest coverage ratio of 525.2x. The company held cash and cash equivalents of ¥5,342 million, indicating extremely high financial soundness.

Revenue from Toyota Systems, the largest customer, was ¥3,928 million (23.7% of total revenue), up 5.9% year on year. Expanding orders in the automotive-related, finance, and insurance fields drove a 5.8% year-on-year increase in the Network Services segment. The customer relationships built on years of business dealings and enhanced sales proposal activities have also contributed to improved contract pricing.

ENVALITH's Perspective

In FY2026 (ending March 2026), the company achieved net sales of ¥16,548 million (up 4.6% year on year) and operating profit of ¥1,646 million (up 3.8% year on year), marking five consecutive fiscal years of higher revenue and profit. As an external tailwind, expanding corporate DX investment and AI/cloud demand supported growth, with the Network Services segment driving overall performance, rising 5.8% year on year to ¥13,985 million. On the other hand, System Development saw a slight decline due to a shift from development to operations phases, while System Operations declined 9.8% amid market contraction and price deterioration, and the widening gap between segments warrants close attention.

Net sales to the major customer Toyota Systems Corporation increased to ¥3,929 million (from ¥3,709 million in the prior period), and its share of total net sales remains high at approximately 23.7%. The structural risk that fluctuations in the automotive industry's business conditions or changes in the customer's procurement policy could directly affect performance has not been resolved. Continued monitoring of progress on customer diversification is necessary.

The company forecasts for FY2027 (ending March 2027) call for net sales of ¥17,500 million (up 5.8% year on year) and operating profit of ¥1,750 million (up 6.3% year on year), representing higher revenue and profit. However, net income is forecast to decline to ¥1,221 million (down 4.3% year on year), mainly due to the disappearance of extraordinary gains such as gains on sale of investment securities recorded in the prior period, along with the impact of corporate taxes. In financing activities, the company is actively returning capital to shareholders, with ¥584 million in share buybacks and ¥534 million in dividends, but cash and cash equivalents decreased by ¥855 million year on year, warranting confirmation of the sustainability of this capital allocation.

Growth Strategy

The company aims to capture DX demand and expand its business scale by securing and developing engineers and providing high-value-added services

The company is strengthening sales proposal activities to clients, mainly in the automotive, finance, and insurance fields, to drive project acquisition and unit price improvement. In FY2026 (ending March 2026), Network Services sales reached ¥13,985 million (up 5.8% year on year), accounting for approximately 84% of consolidated sales and driving growth as the company's core segment.

The company is strengthening IT service support for generative AI implementation, cloud services, security measures, RPA, and other DX promotion initiatives. By capturing the trend of increasing corporate IT investment and responding to demand for renewal of legacy systems, it aims to concentrate resources in highly profitable fields.

The company aims to secure and retain engineers through strengthened recruitment, investment in training, wage improvements, and office environment enhancement. By continuing the shift from general-purpose technology to network-related technology, it strengthens the foundation for providing high-quality, high-value-added services, thereby maintaining medium- to long-term competitiveness.

The company is working to create new businesses that respond to the evolution of IT technology, going beyond the scope of its existing information services business. Together with concentrating resources in highly profitable fields, it has set a policy aimed at further expanding its business scale.
