meeting held on April 21, 2026, Vector Inc. resolved to acquire all 200 shares of AILES Inc. and make it a consolidated subsidiary, and executed a share transfer agreement on the same date. The acquisition price is 1,310 million yen (1,250 million yen for share acquisition plus 60 million yen for advisory fees, etc.). AILES operates an online school for influencer and creator development and conducts SNS management agency business. For the fiscal year ending September 2025, net sales were 857 million yen, operating income 184 million yen, and net income 123 million yen, showing growth.\n\n### Future Outlook and Strategic Significance\nThrough this acquisition, Vector aims to strengthen its services in the SNS domain by establishing a system capable of flexibly supplying high-quality human resources to meet the rapidly expanding PR \u00d7 short video projects. The impact on consolidated earnings for the fiscal year ending February 2027 is expected to be minimal. While responding to changes in the market environment, the company will continue to strengthen its group foundation, including through M&A, comprehensively support customers' marketing strategies, and pursue further growth.","jir_financial_highlights":"Number of Shares Acquired: 200 shares (From 0 shares before acquisition to 100.0% ownership)\nAcquisition Price: 1,310 million yen (Unspecified)\nAILES Net Sales (Fiscal Year Ending September 2025): 857 million yen (Year-on-year increase (720 million yen \u2192 857 million yen))\nAILES Operating Income (Fiscal Year Ending September 2025): 184 million yen (Year-on-year increase (75 million yen \u2192 184 million yen))\nAILES Net Income (Fiscal Year Ending September 2025): 123 million yen (Year-on-year increase (56 million yen \u2192 123 million yen))","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#VectorInc, #M&A, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Number of Shares Acquired: 200 shares (100.0% voting rights ownership)\nAcquisition Price: 1,310 million yen (1,250 million yen for share acquisition + 60 million yen advisory fees)\nAILES Net Sales for Fiscal Year Ending September 2025: 857 million yen","jir_meta_title":"Vector Inc.
