What stands out

  • An order backlog of about 25 billion yen including subsidies (end of 2025)
  • Total income (revenue plus subsidy income) of 6.14 billion yen for the year to December 2025, up 144.8%
  • Launch slots secured for 25 future satellites in total (as of its February 2026 results briefing)

What could go wrong

  • Heavy up-front spending on building and launching satellites continues, and the core business remains loss-making (an operating loss of 4.14 billion yen for the year to December 2025)
  • Results depend heavily on government budgets and subsidies
  • Because of its continuing operating losses, the company discloses events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern (it judges there is no material uncertainty)

About the company

A space company that builds and operates its own small SAR (synthetic aperture radar) satellites, StriX, which observe the ground with radio waves, and sells the data and analysis services.

How it makes money

It sells ground data captured by its StriX satellites and offers analysis services for areas such as natural disasters, national security and environmental risk. Its main customers are government bodies such as the Cabinet Office and the Ministry of Defense, and satellites delivered under demonstration projects also count as revenue. At the end of 2025 it was operating four satellites in orbit.

Where growth is meant to come from

It aims to operate more than 30 satellites from 2028 onward. As of its February 2026 results briefing it planned six launches in 2026 and twelve in 2027, and in September 2026 it completed the launch of its 13th satellite. It won the Ministry of Defense satellite constellation project together with six other companies, and expects services starting in fiscal 2026 to be its main source of revenue in the short to medium term. For the year to December 2026 it forecasts a continued operating loss from its core business but a net profit of 2.62 billion yen thanks to government subsidy income.
