Financial Performance Overview
As of March 2025, the parent company's consolidated financial report highlights significant achievements for the fiscal year. Total revenues reached an impressive ¥979.4 billion, marking a 22.5% increase compared to the previous year. Operating profit soared to ¥135.5 billion, reflecting a remarkable 95% increase. Furthermore, recurring profit and net profit attributable to the parent company's shareholders also surged, recording ¥137.2 billion and ¥91.1 billion respectively, illustrating growth rates of 96.8% and 78.6%.
The total assets at the end of this fiscal year amounted to ¥830.3 billion, showcasing an increase of ¥106.4 billion from the prior year. This uplift was primarily driven by heightened demand in the information and communications business sector. The surge in current assets, particularly accounts receivable and inventory, significantly contributed to this overall growth.
Conversely, liabilities also witnessed an increase of ¥37.7 billion, totaling ¥395.0 billion. This rise correlates with the increased accounts payable, further impacted by the heightened demands in the information communications sector.
Faced with positive net asset growth of ¥68.7 billion which brought total net assets to ¥435.3 billion, the company’s net profit directly attributable to the equity holders served as a major factor behind this financial success.
