## Asset intensity and goodwill

Ratios are derived from reported values. Goodwill is used only when separately reported, never inferred from combined intangible assets.

### Cash quality

Net cash = cash − interest-bearing debt. Net debt ratio = (interest-bearing debt − cash) ÷ positive operating cash flow. Omit when debt components are incomplete; other ratios are derived from reported figures.

| Metric | Value |

## ROA and ROE

ROE is decomposed into net margin × asset turnover × financial leverage. Leverage can raise ROE, so the ratio alone does not assess a company's condition. Ending balances are used without a prior year; total equity approximates parent equity when unavailable.

## AI commentary（text by AI; the tables above are authoritative、claude-code）

- Revenue for the FY ending Mar 2026 was ¥363.7B, up +3.9% from the prior year.
- Profit grew much faster: gross profit rose +8.7% and operating income jumped +24.2% to ¥6.33B.
- Net income attributable to owners climbed +18.8% to ¥5.38B.
- Operating cash flow slipped -4.9% to ¥2.58B, as more cash was tied up in inventory and receivables.

### Drivers

- Farmed yellowtail grew slowly in warm seas, so fewer fish were shipped, but low stock across Japan pushed prices sharply higher and the aquaculture business swung back to a profit.
- Wholesale sales outside the fish markets rose on strong demand from restaurants, hotels and inbound tourism.
- The two main wholesale businesses both earned less, hit by higher purchase costs and rising freight and labor expenses.

### Risks

- Seafood is a natural resource; sudden swings in catches or farm output caused by changes in the ocean could move market prices sharply.
- Typhoons, red tides or fish disease could kill or release farmed fish, cutting sales and forcing inventory write-offs.
- Because it buys fish from abroad, a sharp move in exchange rates could push up purchase prices.

## Definitions

- Amounts are in millions of JPY (rounded). The period is stated in each table heading
- Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Net income is attributable to owners of the parent when disclosed
- Free cash flow (FCF) = operating cash flow − capital expenditure
- ¥100 model = breakdown per ¥100 of revenue (rounded so parts sum to 100)
- Segment revenues include inter-segment sales and may not sum to consolidated revenue
- Source IDs are EDINET document IDs (docID). "算出" (derived) means computed from other disclosed values
- All figures are extracted mechanically from filings. AI-written text never generates figures
- Source: company filings submitted to EDINET (Financial Services Agency of Japan). Figures were extracted, edited and processed, and charts and text were created, by Vizora — not by the FSA (used under the Public Data License v1.0).
