Ii Seikatsu <3796> announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2025 (April-September 24). Revenue increased by 8.2% year-on-year to 1.447 billion yen, operating loss was 0.027 billion yen (compared to a profit of 0.041 billion yen in the same period last year), ordinary loss was 0.03 billion yen (compared to a profit of 0.072 billion yen), and net interim loss attributable to parent company shareholders was 0.025 billion yen (compared to a profit of 0.045 billion yen).
During the interim consolidated accounting period, subscription sales continued to perform well due to continued acquisition of new customers, upselling/cross-selling to existing customers, etc., reaching 1.257 billion yen, a 4.7% increase compared to the same period last year. The number of subscription customers was 1,517 as of the end of September (compared to 1,493 in the same month last year), and the average monthly unit price was approximately 140,800 yen per entity in September (compared to 134,700 yen per entity in the same month last year). Solution sales increased by 38.5% to 0.19 billion yen due to the partial recognition of ongoing projects from the previous period.
Overall, the company's cost structure is primarily fixed costs, resulting in an increase in the breakeven point due to higher personnel costs. However, by accumulating SaaS subscriptions month by month, the company expects to exceed the breakeven point and has turned to operating profit in the second quarter (July to the end of September). Although there is still an operating loss in the current interim consolidated accounting period (6 months), the company anticipates posting operating profit as per the performance forecast for the whole fiscal year, with increased subscription revenue monthly in the latter half of the year.
Regarding the consolidated performance forecast for the full fiscal year ending March 2025, revenue is expected to increase by 11.1% year-on-year to 3.119 billion yen, operating profit is expected to decrease by 43.2% to 0.1 billion yen, ordinary profit is expected to decrease by 52.4% to 0.099 billion yen, and net income attributable to parent company shareholders is expected to decrease by 54.1% to 0.067 billion yen compared to the initial plan.
