## Asset intensity and goodwill

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

| Metric | Value | Sources |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Asset intensity (fixed assets ÷ revenue) | 1.7% | S100XUHN |
| Fixed assets ÷ total assets | 1.1% | S100XUHN |
| Goodwill ÷ parent equity | 2.0% | S100XUHN |

Goodwill over 4 years: 2,817 → 1,552 JPY; total investing cash flow: -28,338 JPY. This does not imply causation.

### 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 |
| --- | ---: |
| Cash ratio (cash ÷ total assets) | 54.6% |
| Cash ÷ revenue | 83.5% |
| Net cash (cash − interest-bearing debt) | — |
| Net debt ÷ operating cash flow | — |
| Cash conversion (operating CF ÷ operating income) | 111.9% |
| Cash vs. profit gap | 30,114 JPY mn (of net income 87.2%) |
| Shareholder returns / net income | 97.0% |
| Shareholder returns / FCF | 80.2% |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / net income | 68.0% |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / FCF | 56.2% |
| CapEx intensity (capex ÷ revenue) | 8.3% |
| Investing CF relative to operating CF | 1.2% |

## 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.

## 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).
