Results at a glance

  • Revenue for the FY ending Mar 2026 was ¥734.8B, up 7.0% from ¥686.6B a year earlier.
  • Profit grew faster than sales: operating income rose 11.1% to ¥116.7B, and net income rose 28.5% to ¥151B.
  • Cash moved the other way. Operating cash flow fell 32.7% to ¥57.1B, and free cash flow dropped to ¥37.7B.

What drove the change

  • More customers signed up for the group's own services, which lifted recurring monthly profit.
  • Pretax income got a boost from financial income tied to a stronger dollar and from higher earnings at equity-method affiliates.
  • Agency sales revenue shrank after a subsidiary was sold the year before, but a one-time gain from selling another subsidiary's shares this year pushed its operating income up.

Things to watch

  • Most of the electricity it sells is bought on the market, so costs swing with fuel prices and exchange rates.
  • More cancellations or system failures could make it harder to earn back the commissions paid to sales agents.
  • Its holdings of stocks and foreign-currency assets could lose value if rates, currencies, or share prices move against it.
