Overview of Operating Results for the Fiscal Year under Review
During the fiscal year under review (July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025), the Japanese economy has maintained a modest recovery, partly due to various government policies while the employment and income environment improved. In addition, the economies of the Asian region where the Group operates continued to stall in China, but there were signs of recovery in other countries.
On the other hand, the environment surrounding the Group's customers requires caution because of the increasing risk of an economic downturn due to the impact of U.S. trade policy and the effects of continued price hikes on personal consumption, which could put downward pressure on the Japanese economy.
In the consolidated fiscal year under review, the second year of the 14th Medium-term Management Plan, the Group has adopted the management policy of "Synergy & Optimization" to realize the Group's basic policy, "Towards New Portfolio as a Data + Technology Company - Creation of New Value." We are promoting the expansion of business areas with the keyword of "Synergy" and the optimization of the Group's management resources with the keyword of "Optimization."
As described in the Notice of Acquisition of Shares of DOCOMO InsightMarketing, INC (to Make it a Subsidiary) dated April 22, 2024, DOCOMO InsightMarketing, INC, which is a joint venture between DOCOMO and the Company, became our wholly owned subsidiary as of July 1, 2024.
As described in the Notice of Company Split (Incorporation-type Company Split) by a Consolidated Subsidiary, Transfer of Shares in the Incorporated Company, and Recording of Extraordinary Income dated June 17, 2024, our consolidated subsidiary, INTAGE Healthcare Inc. transferred its CRO business to Alfresa Holdings Corporation on September 2, 2024.
In the Marketing Support (Consumer Goods & Services) segment, in addition to the growth of existing businesses in Japan, the Company is promoting investments to increase the value provided to customers, to optimize operations, and to revamp SCI. In addition, we will focus on the development of new services and solutions and sales collaboration with NTT DOCOMO, Inc. Overseas, we are strengthening our sales structure through collaboration between domestic and overseas offices.
In the Marketing Support (Healthcare) segment, we will add healthcare consumer awareness and behavior data to factual data obtained through real-world data, etc. to increase understanding of consumers, for the realization of healthcare decision-making partners. We are also continuing to promote the enhancement of medical real-world data, including the upgrade of the integrated database (CrossFact) due to the importance of the medical consumer perspective.
In the Business Intelligence segment, we are accelerating business growth by expanding the data integration platform and utilization business, developing solution services to solve common industry issues, and revamping existing client systems that support business transformation as our priority tasks.
In addition to gain on sale of businesses resulting from the transfer of the CRO business mentioned above, the extraordinary income includes gain on sale of investment securities resulting from the sale of cross-shareholdings. Extraordinary losses include loss on valuation of investment securities incurred by the Company's consolidated subsidiaries (including INTAGE Open Innovation Investment Limited Liability Partnership).
As a result, the INTAGE Group's consolidated net sales for the fiscal year under review amounted to ¥65,571 million (up 3.6% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥4,241 million (up 28.9%), ordinary profit of ¥4,131 million (up 16.6%), and profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥3,505 million (up 42.7%).
The results by business segment are described below.
Marketing Support (Consumer Goods & Services)
In the Marketing Support (Consumer Goods & Services) segment, both sales and profit increased; consolidated net sales of the segment amounted to ¥45,344 million (up 10.1% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥1,435 million (up 23.7%)
In this segment, panel surveys remained at the previous year's level. The custom research business, INTAGE Research Inc. and Research and Innovation Co., Ltd. achieved steady growth. In addition, DOCOMO InsightMarketing, INC contributed significantly to the increase in sales. In overseas business, dataSpring Inc. and other companies performed well.
Investment activities progressed as planned and the transition to the new SCI was completed.
Profits increased due to the effect of higher sales, despite the impact of investment expenses, personnel expenses, and upfront costs associated with the launch of the synergy business with NTT DOCOMO, INC.
Marketing Support (Healthcare)
In the Marketing Support (Healthcare) segment, sales decreased but profit increased; consolidated net sales of the segment amounted to ¥12,432 million (down 13.3% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥2,133 million (up 25.7%). Profitability improved significantly despite a decline in sales due to the impact of the sale of the CRO business at INTAGE Healthcare Inc.
In this segment, in the research business, the mainstay of INTAGE Healthcare Inc., custom research and panel surveys in the medical field contributed to higher profits as both maintained higher sales than in the previous year.
Business Intelligence
In the Business Intelligence segment, both sales and profit increased; consolidated net sales of the segment amounted to ¥7,794 million (up 0.4% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥672 million (up 55.8%).
In this segment, INTAGE TECHNOSPHERE Inc. saw solid sales in the data integration platform and utilization business, a priority investment area, and sales of solutions for existing client industries exceeded the previous year's level. As for Buildsystem Co., Ltd., sales also remained at a higher level than in the previous year due to strong sales of low-code development projects.
Profits increased as a result of efforts to improve profitability by reviewing pricing, controlling outsourcing costs, and improving operational efficiency.
Overview of Financial Position for the Fiscal Year under Review
(Assets)
Current assets increased ¥2,527 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥30,533 million. This was mainly due to an increase of ¥3,223 million in cash and deposits, despite decreases of ¥150 million in notes receivable,
¥1,005 million in accounts receivable - trade, and ¥226 million in contract assets.
Non-current assets contracted ¥923 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥16,389 million. This was mainly due to a decrease of ¥3,358 million in investment securities, despite increases of ¥1,857 million in goodwill and ¥423 million in retirement benefit assets.
As a result, total assets increased by ¥1,604 million to ¥46,922 million. (Liabilities)
Current liabilities rose by ¥676 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥12,567 million. This was largely due to an increase of ¥943 million in income taxes payable, despite a decrease of ¥272 million in accounts payable
- trade.
Non-current liabilities increased ¥46 million from the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥1,034 million. This was mainly due to an increase of ¥292 million in asset retirement obligations, which was partially offset by decreases of
¥100 million in long-term borrowings and ¥114 million in lease liabilities. As a result, total liabilities increased by ¥722 million to ¥13,601 million. (Net assets)
Total net assets increased by ¥881 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥33,321 million. This was mainly due to an increase of ¥1,044 million in retained earnings, which offset a decrease of ¥137 million in valuation difference on available-for-sale securities.
Overview of Cash Flows for the Fiscal Year under Review
The status of cash flows at the end of the fiscal year under review and the primary factors responsible for those results are as follows.
(Cash flows from operating activities)
Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥6,429 million, as cash inflows such as profit before income taxes, depreciation and decrease in trade receivables exceeded cash outflows such as gain on sale of businesses and decrease in trade payables.
(Cash flows from investing activities)
Net cash provided by investing activities was ¥910 million, as cash inflows such as proceeds from sale of investment securities and proceeds from sale of businesses exceeded cash outflows such as purchase of intangible assets and purchase of shares of subsidiaries resulting in a change in the scope of consolidation.
(Cash flows from financing activities)
Net cash used in financing activities was ¥2,734 million, mainly due to repayments of lease liabilities and dividends paid.
As a result, cash and cash equivalents at the end of the fiscal year totaled ¥16,492 million, an increase of ¥4,551 million from the end of the previous fiscal year.
Outlook
Turning to the future outlook, improvements in the employment and income environment and the effects of various policies are expected to support a gradual recovery of the Japanese economy. In addition, looking at the economies of the Asian region where the Group operates, China is likely to remain sluggish, but there are signs of recovery in other countries. On the other hand, the environment surrounding the Group's customers requires caution because of the increasing risk of an economic downturn due to the impact of U.S. trade policy and the effects of continued price hikes on personal consumption, which could put downward pressure on the Japanese economy.
The Group developed the 14th Medium-term Management Plan (three-year plan) which began in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, with its basic policy set as "Towards New Portfolio as a Data + Technology Company -Creation of New Value."
The impact of major changes in social conditions in recent years has brought to light a variety of social issues, as consumers' awareness, values, lifestyles, and purchasing behavior have changed dramatically, while the use of new technologies has resulted in a shorter cycle of creation and destruction, accelerating the transformation of society and industrial structures. In addition, long-term changes are also becoming apparent in Japan, such as the declining birthrate, aging population, falling population and shrinking workforce.
The Group recognizes that major changes in social conditions and major technological advancements will continue to occur constantly, and that the business environment surrounding our customers will continue to change constantly. For the Group to achieve sustainable growth even under circumstances such as these, we have set a vision for 2030 and, with a long-term perspective, aim to become a company that is needed by society as one that can contribute to the realization of a convenient and prosperous society free from social losses.
The Group will shift to business operations that clearly define "core businesses" and "growth businesses" and will seek to adopt the optimal formation, including the consolidation and elimination of organizations and functions, in order to enhance the Group's overall strength. We will encourage a shift from diversification to integration, building an organization that facilitates an optimal allocation of management resources and allocating resources to businesses that are expected to grow over the medium to long term. In addition, as part of the Group's medium- to long-term growth strategy, we will continue to promote the realization of synergies and sales and data collaboration with NTT DOCOMO, INC. Through this initiative, we expect to accelerate the capability of "data collection," "data valorization," and "structuring of data utilization," which the Group has cultivated over many years, and to expand into areas other than the existing marketing support business. We will aim to create a new value demonstration with a view to 2030.
In addition, we will accelerate the promotion of corporate governance and security compliance, which are considered important in ESG investment, aiming to build a good relationship with the capital market. Meanwhile, as part of our
efforts toward the SDGs, we will work to preserve the environment in which data is used and contribute to the realization of a healthy and sustainable society by constantly improving the value of the use of data that connects the perspectives of our customers and consumers.
As a result of the above measures, the Company forecasts net sales in the consolidated fiscal year ending June 30, 2026 of ¥70,000 million (up 6.8% year on year), operating profit of ¥5,600 million (up 32.0%), ordinary profit of
¥5,500 million (up 33.1%), and profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥3,200 million (down 8.7%).
Basic Approach towards Selection of Accounting Standards
The Group currently prepares consolidated financial statements using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Japan to permit comparisons with prior years and with the financial data of other companies. With respect to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) the Company will address the issue appropriately with consideration to the various circumstances in Japan and overseas.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Note on assumptions for going concern) Not applicable.
(Changes in accounting policy)
The Company has applied Accounting Standard for Current Income Taxes (Accounting Standards Board of Japan (ASBJ) Statement No. 27, October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred to as the "Revised Accounting Standard 2022") effective from beginning of the fiscal year under review.
With respect to the revision regarding the classification of income taxes (taxation on other comprehensive income), the transitional treatment stipulated in the proviso of paragraph 20-3 of the Revised Accounting Standard 2022 and the "Guidance on Accounting Standard for Tax Effect Accounting" (ASBJ Guidance No. 28, October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred to as the "Revised Implementation Guidance 2022") have been applied. Accordingly, the cumulative effect of retrospective application of the new accounting policy prior to the beginning of the fiscal year under review shall be added to or deducted from retained earnings at the beginning of the fiscal year under review, and the corresponding amount shall be presented in the appropriate category under capital surplus or accumulated other comprehensive income. The new accounting policy has been applied from the beginning of the period. As a result, retained earnings at the beginning of the fiscal year under review increased ¥62,098 thousand and valuation difference on available-for-sale securities decreased by the same amount.
For the amendment related to the revised accounting treatment for consolidated financial statements when gains or losses on sale of shares in subsidiaries resulting from transactions between consolidated companies were deferred for tax purposes, the Revised Implementation Guidance 2022 has been adopted from the beginning of the fiscal year under review. This change in accounting policy is applied retrospectively, and consolidated financial statements for the previous year are after retrospective application. This change has no impact on the previous consolidated financial statements.
