What stands out

  • In the year to February 2026 revenue rose 7.5% and operating profit rose 25.9%
  • For the year to February 2027 the company forecasts revenue up 7.7% and net profit up 11.4%
  • It has moved up in steps, from TOKYO PRO Market (2017) to Fukuoka's Q-Board (2025), and in July 2026 applied to list on the TSE Standard Market

What could go wrong

  • Fukuoka's Q-Board has little trading, so you may not be able to buy or sell at the price you want
  • The work depends on securing partner contractors and staff, and the company says higher labour costs and support for partners will raise costs in the short term
  • The interior total support business saw revenue fall 6.6% in the year to February 2026, as custom furniture orders fell short of the previous year

About the company

Takes on work for property management companies and other clients, such as patrolling and inspecting apartment buildings and rental storage containers, and delivering and installing furniture with two-person crews.

How it makes money

The property management company support business, about 77% of revenue in the year to February 2026, handles regular patrols and inspections of apartments, buildings and rental storage containers, pre-move-in checks, and preparing rooms for monthly rental apartments, with the work carried out by the many contractors it has agreements with. The remaining 23% comes from the interior total support business: a nationwide delivery network that carries large furniture with two-person crews and unpacks, assembles and installs it, plus support for running interior trade fairs.

Where growth is meant to come from

In the year to February 2026 it captured demand for preparing rooms in monthly rental apartments and for outsourced pre-move-in checks, and revenue rose 7.5% and operating profit 25.9%. For the year to February 2027 it forecasts revenue up 7.7% and net profit up 11.4%. In July 2026 it applied to list on the TSE Standard Market and to move to the main board of the Fukuoka Stock Exchange, partly to raise its profile in western Japan, where it is weaker than in the east; whether and when it will list has not been decided.
