Earnings Presentation Report (Transcript) for the First Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027

In the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027, revenue and operating profit reached record highs for a first quarter, resulting in year-on-year increases in both revenue and profit. Growth was driven by the broader use of iTrust and large contract development projects, while revenue from server certificates temporarily declined due to the shortening of their validity period.

The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue growth was driven by accelerating growth in iTrust, increased use of identity verification services by financial institutions in response to amendments to the Act on Prevention of Transfer of Criminal Proceeds, and an increase in security consulting related to the European Cyber Resilience Act and large contract development projects for the automotive sector. The validity period for server certificates was shortened from one year to six months, temporarily reducing revenue recognized at the time of issuance.
