Financial Results Presentation for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2026

For the fiscal year ending March 2026, revenue and profit increased, driven by strong performance in the core residential and commercial rent guarantee businesses and the consolidation of K-net. Revenue and all profit figures reached record highs and exceeded the company’s forecasts. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, profit is expected to decline in the first half due to upfront investments in a new core system, personnel system and expanded space at the Tokyo head office, while full-year profit is projected to increase on the effect of higher revenue.

These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.

The reasons the company gives

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

The residential and commercial rent guarantee businesses performed strongly, and revenue from K-net, which became a subsidiary in April 2025, also contributed. The increase in credit-loss-related expenses accompanying the growth in contract volume, administrative fees due to intensifying competition, and amortization of goodwill related to M&A were absorbed by revenue growth.
