Overview of Performance
From the Q&A of the earnings presentation for the fiscal year ending August 2026: revenue was affected by a decrease in revenue share and a temporary suspension of projects for overseas clients, which were major contributors to the decline in profits year-over-year. The three new orders have the potential to drive future revenue, but development timelines are expected to exceed 2 years up to about 4 years. For the fiscal year ending August 2027, operating income is expected to improve due to optimization of development resources and reduced external outsourcing, although the launch phase is anticipated to be a period of lower profitability.
Outlook and Investment Judgment
The outlook for the fiscal year ending August 2027 anticipates lower revenue, but operating income is expected to improve through higher gross margin and the start of new projects. The company plans to strengthen expansion into new areas, including broader AI utilization and support for education-related and IP-utilization services, while maintaining a stable foundation in contract development and promoting self-publishing and new business creation. With the construction of a new office and consolidation of the Kyoto base, the company will carefully manage its funding plan and proceed with consideration of shareholder returns.
