Business Plan and Growth Potential

For the fiscal year ending May 2027, revenue is projected at ¥1,601 million, while continued investment in development, including generative AI, and in human resources is expected to reduce operating profit from the ¥197 million recorded for the fiscal year ended May 2026 to ¥167 million, and the operating margin from 13.7% to 10.4%. From January 2027, KASIKA for condominiums will change from a flat monthly fee of ¥50,000 to a pricing structure combining a base fee with additional charges based on property size and region. The growth roadmap has also been updated.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The company views this as a run-up period toward a highly profitable business structure that will reliably capture expanding demand and convert it into substantial future profits. For the fiscal year ending May 2027, expenses are expected to increase as the company continues investing in feature development, initiatives to improve and enhance operational efficiency using generative AI and other technologies, and human resources. The condominium pricing revision is intended to establish appropriate prices reflecting differences in cost structures by property size and market conditions by region, continue providing high-quality services, and strengthen the earnings base.
