Section 01 · Earnings Trend · Annual

Revenue, operating profit, and operating margin by fiscal year

Annual figures as filed (Japanese GAAP, ¥M). FY9/2021 and FY9/2022 are non-consolidated (parent only); consolidated statements begin FY9/2023 after the Growup and Attack acquisitions. FY9/2021 operating profit is rounded to ¥10M. FY9/2024 reflects the finalized purchase-price allocation as restated in the FY9/2025 annual report. FY9/2025 net income carries the goodwill impairment. FY9/2026E is the company's own guidance. Links open the English disclosure when the company provides one; [JA] marks Japanese-only documents.

Net income is profit attributable to owners of the parent. The shaded row is the company's own forecast, not a JII estimate.

Section 02 · Earnings Trend · Quarterly

Standalone quarters — the last 13

Standalone quarters derived from each period's own disclosure (year-to-date differences, ¥M, consolidated). FY9/2024 quarters are as first reported and predate the purchase-price-allocation restatement, so they sum to 4,541M yen of operating profit against the restated annual 4,529M yen. FY9/2025 Q4 net income carries the roughly 1.15bn-yen goodwill impairment. Q4 rows are derived as full year minus nine months.

† Fourth quarters are derived as the full year minus the nine-month cumulative. YoY compares the same quarter a year earlier.

Section 03 · Earnings Trend · By Segment

Where the profit comes from

Segment figures from the segment notes of the annual securities reports (Japanese GAAP, ¥M). Segment profits exceed group operating profit because unallocated corporate costs sit in an adjustment line (FY9/2025: -1,262M yen). The current two-segment structure dates from FY9/2023; earlier years are not comparable and are omitted. FY9/2023 figures are rounded to ¥10M. Per-quarter segment series will be added from future disclosures; quarterly segment XBRL is sparse after Japan's 2024 disclosure reform.

Four filer groups sit above the 5% large-shareholding line: the two founder blocs (CEO Mimuro and Vice President Suzumura, each with an asset-management vehicle, about 33% combined), activist Oasis Management, and a Nomura brokerage/asset-management group. Oasis's filing is explicitly activist and flags intent to buy more than 5 additional points within twelve months of May 2026.

2026-05-19 JII Compounder Profile — Initiation ↗

A Japanese-NLP SaaS franchise (Talent Palette plus Mieruka Engine) where the enterprise-mix shift drove FY9/2025 operating profit up 41% on 23% revenue growth at a 46% return on capital. Central debates: the durability of the margin slope, whether the Mynavi and Rakus OEM channels become a second engine, and how far the Oasis-led capital-return push moves a policy that now stands at a 30% payout target.
