CROSS MARKETING GROUP INC. announced plans to acquire all shares of ちょっと, a Web front-end development support company based in Nakano-ku, Tokyo, and make it a wholly owned subsidiary. The scheduled acquisition date is 1 December 2026, and the acquisition price has not been disclosed.
Through the acquisition, the group aims to strengthen its resources for both digital marketing and systems development and expand its capabilities for developing services and applications incorporating AI. ちょっと has an engineering organization with strengths in Next.js and React, as well as a track record in front-end development using generative AI.
For the fiscal year ended March 2026, ちょっと reported revenue of ¥527 million, operating profit of ¥6.12 million and net assets of ¥25.2 million. The CMS business is expected to be carved out through a newly established company split and transferred to another company, allowing the group to concentrate its management resources on the development support business.
As AI-related digital investment expands, the market environment is expected to make the in-house development of engineering resources a factor in competitiveness for winning orders, while the circulation of external engineers is also expected to provide benefits.
