Section 01 · Earnings Trend · Annual

Revenue, operating profit, and operating margin by fiscal year

Annual figures as filed (Japanese GAAP, ¥M). FY2021-FY2024 are non-consolidated; FY2025 is the first consolidated fiscal year after the November 2025 Yappli Food Connect acquisition (its profit-and-loss consolidation starts FY2026). FY2024 net income exceeds operating profit on deferred-tax-asset recognition; the loss-carryforward tax shield runs out after FY2026. FY2026E 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). Quarters through Q3 FY2025 are non-consolidated; the FY2025 Q4 row is derived against the consolidated full-year total (consolidation began at the FY2025 year-end), so FY2025 quarters reconcile to the consolidated annual figures. FY2023 Q3 net income carries a one-time deferred-tax reversal.

No filer group currently sits above the 5% large-shareholding line: Asset Management One amended below it in September 2025 and IPO-era venture investor Eight Roads exited through early 2025. The three co-founders together hold about 37% on the year-end register; their individual filings have not crossed reporting thresholds since 2022-2024.

2026-05-21 JII Compounder Profile — Initiation ↗

A no-code mobile-app platform pivoting to multi-product (Yappli, WebX, MiniApp, MobileOrder) that printed a record 23.2% operating margin in Q1 FY2026 while trading near 8x forward EV/EBIT. Central debates: the capital-return policy gap given net cash and a 37% return on equity, cohort-level churn opacity in the Marketing book, and whether the conservative FY2026 guide gets raised.
