Profitability ReboundThe 2025 rebound to ~¥138M net income with improved gross (~42.6%) and net (~4.8%) margins shows the company can regain operating leverage and cost control. Durable profitability restoration supports reinvestment, strengthens ROE recovery (~11.6%) and reduces structural solvency risk if sustained.
Stronger Balance SheetLeverage reduced materially versus earlier years (was >1 in 2020), giving the firm greater financial flexibility. A lower debt-to-equity and larger asset base improve capacity to fund growth, absorb shocks, and pursue strategic investments without immediate refinancing pressure.
Cash Flow TurnaroundPositive operating cash flow and a return to positive free cash flow in 2025 mark a structural improvement in cash generation versus prior years. Sustainable FCF enables self-funded capex, reduces reliance on external financing, and supports durable capital allocation if the conversion trend continues.
