LEIFRAS H1 2026 net income rises 43.5% to JPY77.1M
LEIFRAS Co., Ltd. reported six-month revenue of JPY5,978,787,041, up 8.9% from JPY5,488,810,821, and net income of JPY77,076,840, up 43.5% from JPY53,706,198.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
LEIFRAS Co., Ltd. reported six-month revenue of JPY5,978,787,041, up 8.9% from JPY5,488,810,821, and net income of JPY77,076,840, up 43.5% from JPY53,706,198. Gross profit was JPY1,766,110,397 versus JPY1,441,124,482; gross margin was 29.5% versus 26.3%. Social-business revenue rose 18.0%, sports-school revenue rose 5.4%, while event revenue fell 4.1%.

A TO SPORTS acquisition for JPY2,000,000 is scheduled to take effect January 1, 2027, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Note 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES
Initial Public Offering
On October 10, 2025, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), representing ordinary shares, at a public offering price of $ per ADS. The Company received net proceeds of approximately JPY
Basis of presentation
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted consistent with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, in normal recurring nature, as necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2026, and results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026 has been derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, and related notes included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
Principles of consolidation
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. A subsidiary is an entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power; has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors; and has the power to cast majority of votes at the meeting of the board or to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of estimates and assumptions
In preparing the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, the management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, allowance of expected credit losses, inventory valuation, useful lives of property, equipment and intangible assets, the impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, provision of refund liabilities, valuation of share-based compensation, valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, uncertain income tax positions, the period during which revenue for registration fees is recognized over time, and implicit interest rate of operating and finance leases. Actual results could differ from those estimates, as the current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.
Business combinations
The purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on their estimated fair values, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of income. The results of operations of the acquired business are included in the Company’s results of operations from the date of acquisition.

Convenience translation
Cash and cash equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present an insignificant risk of changes in value due to changes in interest rates to be cash equivalents. Generally, investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify as cash equivalents. Demand deposits and other accounts from which funds can be withdrawn on demand without any risk of principal loss are also treated as cash equivalents. The Company maintains substantially all of its bank accounts in Japan. Cash balances in bank accounts in Japan are insured by the Deposit Insurance Corporation of Japan, subject to certain limitations.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company did
Accounts receivable, net
Accounts receivable includes trade accounts due from customers. Accounts are considered overdue after 30 days. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the allowance for expected credit loss is adequate and provides allowance when necessary. The allowance is based on management’s best estimates of specific losses on individual customer exposures, as well as the historical trends of collections. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, the Company made JPY
Investments in securities
The Company’s investments in equity securities of publicly traded companies are accounted for in accordance with ASC 321, Investments—Equity Securities. These investments are measured at fair value using quoted market prices in active markets. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are recognized in earnings within other income (expense), net, in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company classifies its investments in equity securities as short-term or long-term based on management’s intent and ability to sell the investments within one year from the balance sheet date.
Inventories, net
Inventories, net are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, on a weighted average basis. Costs include mainly the cost of merchandise inventories such as uniforms and sports equipment. Any excess of the cost over the net realizable value of each item of merchandise inventories is recognized as a provision for diminution in the value of merchandise inventories. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less any costs to sell products. The Company periodically evaluates merchandise inventories for their net realizable value adjustments and reduces the carrying value of those merchandise inventories that are obsolete or in excess of the forecasted usage to their estimated net realizable value based on various factors including aging and expiration dates, as applicable, taking into consideration historical and expected future product sales.
F-7
Prepaid expenses
Prepaid expenses mainly comprise an advance payment for insurance fees, prepaid rent, software subscription and IT service fees, equipment rental fees, and web advertising fees. These expenses are initially recognized as assets and are subsequently transferred to the income statement over time. Management reviews its prepaid expenses on a regular basis to determine if the allowance is adequate and adjusts the allowance when necessary.
Other current assets
Other current assets primarily consist of deferred expenses, including promotional consumables, clothing, and sports equipment. Deferred expenses are initially recorded as assets on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheet and subsequently expensed over time as they are used. These costs are incurred for supplies to be utilized in future periods. As of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, the total deferred expenses were JPY
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment if applicable. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method or declining balance method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its intended use. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
| Useful Life | ||
| Leasehold improvements | ||
| Building and facilities | ||
| Motor vehicle | ||
| Tools and equipment |
Expenditures on maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized.
Intangible assets, net
Intangible assets with finite lives are initially recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful lives of the respective assets. Acquired intangible assets from a business combination are recognized and measured at fair value at the time of acquisition. Those assets represent assets with finite lives and are further amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful lives of the respective assets. Certain acquired trade names are determined to have an indefinite useful life and are not amortized but instead tested for impairment at least annually. The estimated useful lives of intangible assets with finite lives are as follows:
| Useful Life | ||
| Trademarks | ||
| Software | ||
| Customer-related intangible assets |
F-8
Impairment for long-lived assets
Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognizes an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, the Company will reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. As of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026,
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other,” goodwill is assigned to the Company’s reporting units as of the acquisition date and is tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.
The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test in accordance with ASC 350-20. In performing the qualitative assessment, the Company considers factors including industry and market conditions, overall financial performance, and other entity-specific events and circumstances.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized goodwill in connection with the acquisitions of Well Resource and Tokai Sports. Such goodwill was assigned to the applicable reporting units as of the respective acquisition dates. As of June 30, 2026, the Company evaluated whether any events or changes in circumstances indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the applicable reporting units was less than their carrying amounts and concluded that no such impairment indicators existed.
Operating leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liability, and operating lease liability, non-current in the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When determining the lease term, the Company includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option, if any. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company has elected to adopt the following lease policies in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-02: (i) for leases that have lease terms of 12 months or less and do not include a purchase option that is reasonably certain to exercise, the Company elected not to apply ASC 842 recognition requirements; and (ii) the Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients for existing arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2020 to not reassess (a) whether an arrangement is or contains a lease, (b) the lease classification applied to existing leases, and(c) initial direct costs.
Finance leases
Finance lease assets are subsequently amortized using the straight-line method from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of its useful life or the end of the lease term unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company or the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to purchase the underlying asset. In those cases, the finance lease assets are amortized over the useful life of the underlying asset. Accordingly, the assets leased under the finance leases are included in finance lease right-of-use assets, and amortization thereon is recognized in operating expenses in the financial statements. When the Company makes its contractually required payments under finance leases, the Company allocates a portion to reduce the finance lease obligation and a portion is recognized as interest expense.
F-9
Asset retirement obligations
The Company accounts for asset retirement obligations in accordance with ASC 410-20, Asset Retirement Obligations. ASC 410-20 requires the Company to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the operation use of the leased assets. Asset retirement obligations consist of estimated restoration costs to be incurred by the Company in the future once the economic life of its leased assets is reached. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life. The liability is accreted until the Company settles the obligation.
Deferred IPO costs
Pursuant to ASC 340-10-S99-1, costs that are directly attributable to a proposed offering of equity securities are capitalized as deferred offering costs. Upon the completion of the offering, such costs are recorded as a reduction of the net proceeds and charged against additional paid-in capital. These costs primarily consist of legal, accounting, consulting, filing fees with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and printing fees directly associated with the registration and offering process.
On October 10, 2025, the Company completed its IPO of ADSs at a public offering price of $ per ADS, generating net proceeds of JPY
Upon the completion of the IPO, total deferred offering costs of JPY
As of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, all deferred offering costs were charged against the net proceeds upon the completion of IPO on October 10, 2025.
Long-term deposits
Long-term deposits primarily consist of security deposits for the leases of headquarters, branch offices, and operational facilities, as well as guaranteed deposits for school club activity support business, travel agency indemnity deposits, and operating guarantee deposits and outsourcing deposits. These amounts are recorded based on the contractual value and are carried to the balance sheet as non-current assets.
Other non-current assets
Other non-current assets primarily consist of long-term prepaid expenses, which mainly comprise advance payments for software subscription fees, as well as key money for property rentals. These expenses are initially recognized as assets and are subsequently transferred to the income statement over time.
Fair value measurement
The accounting standard regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.
The accounting standards define fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement, and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:
| ● | Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
F-10
| ● | Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. |
| ● | Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. |
The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value.
Assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis or disclosed at fair value as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026 are summarized below:

F-11
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instruments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Contract liabilities
Contract liabilities are the obligation to transfer products or services to customers for which the Company has received the consideration or has billed the customers. The Company’s contract liabilities are non-refundable payments collected in advance from customers. Contract liabilities are reclassified to revenue at the point at which products or services are delivered to customers.
Bond payable
Bond payable represents the contractual obligation of the issuer to make periodic interest payment and principal repayments at maturity. The bondholders have a fixed claim on the issuer’s assets and cash flows, similar to traditional debt instruments. If the contractual terms of the bond payable primarily represent a liability, the bonds are recognized as a liability at their fair value at the issuance date. Transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance are typically allocated to the liability and amortized over the bond’s term and the fair value has been disclosed in the fair value measurement. The bond payable is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest expense is recognized over the bond’s term based on the effective interest rate, which reflects the market rate at the issuance date.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily from membership, events hosting, school club support, after-school daycare services, and other fees collected from services provided. Revenue is recognized when a contract exists between the Company and a customer and upon transfer of control of promised products or services to such customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. The Company enters into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which may be capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Revenue is recognized as a net of provision for refund and any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. The Company has adopted ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. This guidance provides a five-step analysis in determining when and how revenue is recognized. Under the guidance, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the guidance requires the disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company is a principal and records revenue on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the goods and services, has discretion in establishing pricing, and controls the promised goods and services before transferring that service to customers. The Company’s continuing operations currently generate revenue from the following main sources:
(i) Sports school business
Membership revenue: Membership revenue comprises registration fees, monthly fees, and annual fees. The Company cultivates professional coaches and provides high-quality professional sports lessons to its customers, who are children registered as the Company’s members. The typical payment terms for membership revenue set forth in the invoice are within 30 days of the invoice date.
F-12
The Company accounts for one-time, non-refundable registration fees as fees for facilitating membership registration. The Company provides administrative support, including creating individual member accounts, performing identity verification and health assessment, and providing onboarding materials and access to member information platforms. The Company recognizes the registration fees ratably over the average duration of membership life, which is generally 1 to 2 years, and reassesses the duration annually based on historical data. The registration fees were JPY
The Company accounts for membership annual fee revenue, net of refunds, on a deferred basis, ratably over the one-year membership period. The Company will bill and receive fixed annual membership revenue from students but not earned as contract liability on an annual basis and recognized over time, based on a straight-line basis over the school year or service period, as the customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits of these services throughout the service period.
The Company accounts for monthly fees, each membership registration contract represents a series of distinct services, which are delivery of various courses. The services have substantially the same pattern of transfer to the students, and as such, they are considered as a single performance obligation. The transaction price is stated in the contract and known at the time of contract inception. The monthly fees are generally collected in advance and are initially recorded as contract liabilities.
There is no variable consideration in the membership registration contracts with customers, except that the Company offers certain refunds for unattended classes to students who decided to withdraw from a course.
The Company estimates the amount of such refund liability based on historical refund rates on a portfolio basis using the expected value method, and such refund liability is recorded under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Event hosting: The Company offers event hosting service to customers, including but not limited to services like organizing sport-related events, student camps during school holidays, and day trips, which can cater to different budgets and preferences. To deliver such a service, the Company coordinates and integrates services from selected suppliers such as transportation, accommodation, and tour guide. The typical payment terms for event hosting revenue set forth in the invoices are within 30 days of the invoice date.
The Company enters into a distinct service contract with each customer for the service provided. The whole event hosting service is determined as a single performance obligation with a fixed total consideration as the customer benefits from a series of integrated services from selected suppliers, which are not separately identifiable.
The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company offers refund options to customers for event hosting fees received in advance for offline events that were subsequently cancelled due to weather conditions or natural disasters.
The Company estimates the amount of such refund liability based on historical refund rates on a portfolio basis using the expected value method, which is recorded under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Other revenue: Other revenue comprised primarily of non-profit organization (“NPO”) sales, royalty fees from franchises, sponsorship fees, other school revenue, and goods sales. The typical payment terms for other revenue set forth in the invoices are within 30 days of the invoice date.
NPO sales are recognized when the respective services are rendered to the customers or partner organizations, in accordance with the contract terms.
F-13
The Company receives certain royalty fees from franchisees for licensing franchises to operate under the Company’s trademarks and also receives certain other support and maintenance fees professional maintenance and support for the franchisees’ sports school business. The royalty fee is calculated to be a percentage of the revenue earned by a franchisee, which percentage is agreed in the payment schedule. The support and maintenance fees are billed according to negotiated billing terms and revenue is recognized in accordance with the fulfillment of the performance obligations as set forth in the terms and conditions set forth in customer contracts.
Sponsorship fees are recognized over the period specified in the sponsorship agreements as the performance obligations are fulfilled.
The Company sells sports equipment to customers. Each transaction represents a single performance obligation. The billing terms for sales of sports equipment are billed when equipment is delivered and is recognized at a point in time.
The Company offers special guidance services to the customers, mainly by dispatching coaches and instructors to kindergartens and nurseries to conduct sports and gymnastics classes, which are included in other school revenue. The fee is based on payment schedules specifying agreed rates according to the number of classes conducted each month. Each class represents a single performance obligation. The revenue from special guidance services is recognized over the contract term as customers receive and consume benefits of such services as provided. The special guidance services are billed monthly.
(ii) Social business
The Company provides a variety of customized services to municipalities, other governmental authorities, and schools. The Company offers two primary services under the social business umbrella through fixed-fee contracts: school club activity support service and after-school daycare service. The billing terms for the social business are billed on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. The typical payment terms for social business set forth in the invoices are 30 to 60 days. The school club activity support service involves managing student club activities for elementary and middle schools, based on contracts with the schools or relevant municipalities or education boards. Service rendered includes providing sports, music, and other cultural lessons and coaching services, with revenue recognized over time on a straight-line basis throughout the contract period as customers receive and benefits from the services continuously. For certain social business contracts, revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the service is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs upon completion of the service in accordance with the contract terms. Similarly, the after-school daycare service supports children with disabilities or developmental needs, enhancing their daily living skills and social abilities through soccer therapy, known for its developmental benefits. Revenue from after-school daycare service is also recognized over time throughout the contract period, as the benefits are continuously provided to and consumed by the customers.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue primarily consists of salaries and related welfare expenses for full-time coaches and instructors, school facility rental fees, event hosting related expenses, the cost of sports equipment sold, and related expenses directly used in the provision of services and goods to customers.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses
Selling, general, and administrative expenses include all operating costs of the Company, except cost of revenue, as described above. As a result, the majority of directors’ compensation and employee payroll-related expenses, commission fees, depreciation, travelling fees, system maintenance fees, advertising expenses, and operating lease expenses are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses. Since these expenses serve similar functions and pertain to the same aspects of the business, the Company has consolidated them into a single line item under this title.
F-14
Advertising expenses
The Company expenses advertising costs as they incurred. Total advertising expenses were JPY
Grant income
The Company recognizes grant income when the related grants are received because such grants are not subject to any past or future performance or use conditions and are not subject to future refunds. Grant income received and recognized totaled JPY
Income taxes
The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026.
Treasury shares
The Company accounts for treasury shares using the cost method. Under this method, the cost incurred to purchase the shares is recorded in the treasury shares account in shareholders’ equity. At retirement of the treasury shares, the ordinary shares account is charged only for the aggregate par value of the shares. The excess of the acquisition cost of treasury shares over the par value reduces additional paid-in capital.
The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” ASC 260 requires companies to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average ordinary share outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of the potential ordinary shares (for instance, convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential ordinary shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (that is, those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, the Company included incremental dilutive ordinary shares of , in the calculation of diluted EPS.

F-15
Share-based compensation
The Company applies ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), to account for its share-based payments to employees and non-employees. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company determines whether an award should be classified and accounted for as a liability award or equity award. All the Company’s share-based awards to employees and non-employees are classified as equity awards and are recognized in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values. The Company records share-based compensation expenses for employees and non-employees at fair value on the grant date. Share-based compensation is recognized net of forfeitures, as amortized expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.
The Company accounts for share-based compensation expenses using an estimated forfeiture rate at the time of grant and revising, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. Share-based compensation expenses are recorded net of estimated forfeitures such that expenses are recorded only for those share-based awards that are expected to vest.
Warrants
The Company evaluates its warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified derivatives in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging.
Warrants that are determined to be equity-classified are recorded within additional paid-in capital at their fair value on the date of issuance, and are not subject to subsequent remeasurement. The Company determined that the representative’s warrants issued in connection with the IPO met the criteria for equity classification. The fair value of these warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Related parties
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence, such as a family member or relative, a shareholder, or a related corporation.
Commitments and contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, including legal proceedings and claims arising out of the business that relate to a wide range of matters, such as government investigations and tax matters. The Company recognizes a liability for such a contingency if it determines it is probable that a loss has occurred, and a reasonable estimate of the loss can be made. The Company may consider many factors in making these assessments including historical and the specific facts and circumstances of each matter.
Segment reporting
ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organizational structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments, and major customers in unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for detailing the Company’s business segments.
Based on the criteria established by ASC 280, the Company’s chief operating decision-maker has been identified as its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the operating results of each segment when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance. The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments: (1) sports school business and (2) social business. The Company’s long-lived assets are all located in Japan and substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from Japan. Therefore, no geographical segments are presented.

Concentration of risks
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with financial institutions with high credit ratings and quality.
Accounts receivable primarily comprise of amounts receivable from the service customers. To reduce credit risk, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of these service customers. The Company establishes a provision for expected credit loss based upon estimates, factors surrounding the credit risk of specific service customers and other information.

Recently Adopted or Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. Under the JOBS Act, the Company meets the definition of an emerging growth company and has elected the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, which delays the adoption of these accounting standards until they apply to private companies.
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2024-03 – Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development). This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted.
In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 – Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Effective Date to clarify the Effective Date. This ASU clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03, specifying that all public business entities must adopt the guidance for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. As these standards relate solely to expense disaggregation disclosures, their adoption is not expected to affect the recognition or measurement of amounts in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but may result in additional financial statement disclosures.
F-17
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This ASU provides a practical expedient for all entities and an accounting policy election for entities other than public business entities, to simplify the measurement of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from revenue transactions. This standard becomes effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
In October 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, “Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities.” This ASU provides guidance on the accounting for government grants received by business entities by requiring disclosures about the nature of the grants, the accounting policies used to account for the grants, and the line items on the financial statements that are affected by the grants. This ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements.” This ASU provides narrow-scope improvements to Topic 270 to clarify the interim reporting requirements and improve the consistency of information provided in interim periods. This ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, “Codification Improvements.” This ASU provides amendments to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance, and make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. The effective date varies depending on the specific amendment. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of income, and unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Note 3 — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The consideration transferred in an acquisition is measured at fair value, and the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition-date fair values.

The “reversal (provision) of sales refund” represents the provision for refund for sports school business services. The refund liability is based on estimates made from past refund historical data. The Company will re-evaluate the provision for refund liability based on the estimates to match the actual claims and expects to make use of the refund liability over the next operating period.
The “reversal of sales refund” represents the release of refund obligations initially recorded under ASC 606-10-55-23 through 55-27 for estimated customer refunds. During the reporting period, certain customers did not exercise their refund rights, and the related refund liabilities were reversed. Such reversals are recognized as an increase in revenue in the period in which the change in estimate occurs, consistent with ASC 606-10-32-14. The amount represents the reversal of previously recognized refund liabilities as certain customer refunds were no longer expected to occur. Such reversals are recorded as an increase to revenue in the period of change in estimate.
Liabilities for refund are included in “Other current liabilities” and were JPY

Note 6 — SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company follows ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” to report information about operating segments. The Company’s reportable segments are components of the Company for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Decision-Maker (“CODM”), Mr. Kiyotaka Ito, the representative director and CEO of the Company, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has identified two reportable segments as follows:
Sports school business: This segment focuses on providing services related to the operation of sports schools and organizing events for children.
Social business: This segment provides services including managing extracurricular activities in schools, sports therapy for children with disabilities, and health exercise guidance.
Segment profit or loss measure
The CODM evaluates segment performance based on “direct operating profit,” which is defined as segment net revenue less directly attributable cost of revenue and segment-specific selling, general and administrative expenses. Segment-specific expenses include, but are not limited to, instructor salaries, facility leasing costs, and local marketing expenses. Certain corporate-level selling, general and administrative expenses are excluded from segment results and instead reported within “corporate expenses.” These corporate expenses consist primarily of headquarters-related administrative costs, professional fees (such as audit and legal fees), and other general expenses that are not specifically identifiable to any reportable segment. These costs are not allocated to the reportable segments.
Segment assets
The CODM does not regularly review segment assets for the purposes of making decisions about allocating resources or assessing performance. Accordingly, no measure of segment assets is disclosed.
F-21
Adoption of ASU 2023-07
In accordance with ASU 2023-07, the Company has identified “salaries and welfare expenses” as a significant segment expense (“SSE”) for both segments. These expenses are regularly reviewed by the CODM, are included in the measure of segment profit or loss, and serve as the primary driver in evaluating segment performance and determining resource allocation, as the Company’s business model is highly dependent on specialized human resources. This expense is presented for each reportable segment in the segment disclosure tables below. “Other Expenses” within the segment results primarily consist of travel expenses, communication costs, and small-tool supplies required for local operations.
Segment performance
The following table summarizes financial information by reportable segment, presents SSE, and reconciles total segment profit to consolidated income from operations and net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is designed to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management. You should read the following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of selected events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in our annual report on Form 20-F, dated April 8, 2026.
Overview
Headquartered in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, we are a sports and social business company dedicated to youth sports and community engagement. We primarily provide services related to the organization and operations of sports schools and sports events for children. Building upon our experience and know-how in sports education, we also operate a robust social business sector, dispatching sports coaches to meet various community needs.
At the core of our operations is the children’s sports school business. When we refer to a sports school, it refers to a series of courses and programs that we offer to teach a sport, instead of a physical location. As of June 30, 2026, we were recognized as one of Japan’s largest operators of children’s sports schools in terms of both membership and facilities. As of June 30, 2026, we held our sports classes at more than 4,800 facility locations in Japan nationwide, serving over 68,000 members. The number of members is based on the number of students taking classes; if a student is enrolled in two different classes, this student is counted as two members. We provide 13 sports schools, from soccer school “Liberta” and baseball school “Porte,” to rhythmic karate school “Quore” and kendo school “Kokoro.” We also offer classes that cater to the various needs of different age groups and sports capability levels. For instance, our “JJMIX” classes offer beginners from the age of two and up the opportunity to experience multiple sports, and our “Rugina” classes are designed specifically for girls. Approximately 79% of our sports school members are elementary school students, with additional programs for preschoolers, nursery school children, kindergarteners, and junior high school students. These classes are taught by professional coaches who bring their expertise and passion to each session, ensuring that students receive high-quality coaching in safe environments. Our sports school business also extends to sports merchandise sales and commissioned special guidance services.
Our approach to sports education emphasizes the development of non-cognitive skills, which are crucial for success both inside and outside the sports arena. Following our teaching principle “acknowledge, praise, encourage, and motivate,” our classes integrate non-cognitive skills, such as motivation, teamwork, strategic thinking, and sportsmanship, into our sports curriculum. For instance, our soccer program focuses on developing technical skills, tactical understanding, and teamwork, and our martial arts programs in karate and kendo promote physical fitness and self-discipline. Our holistic approach integrates physical and mental development, setting us apart in the industry.
Building upon our experience and know-how in sports education, our social business mainly dispatches sports coaches to meet various community needs. Our school club support business provides sports coaching in school club activities and physical education classes and coordinates collaborations between school clubs and private companies. Our LEIF after-school daycare service supports children with disabilities or developmental characteristics through soccer therapy, promoting independence and improving life skills. Our involvement also extends to facility management services at public sports facilities, focusing on providing sports coaching for people of all ages. Our elderly healthcare initiative offers exercise programs for the elderly, including exercise instruction such as preventive nursing care exercises, yoga, and other health promotion services at community centers and healthcare facilities. By addressing these diverse needs, we aim to promote physical health, social inclusion, and community well-being across different demographics.
Our revenue increased by JPY490.0 million (US$3.0 million), or 8.9%, from JPY5,488.8 million (US$33.8 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2025, to JPY5,978.8 million (US$36.8 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Our net income increased by JPY23.4 million (US$0.1 million), or 43.5%, from JPY53.7 million (US$0.3 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2025, to JPY77.1 million (US$0.5 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, we had JPY100.0 million (US$0.6 million) of short-term loans, JPY75.0 million (US$0.5 million) of current portion of long-term loans, JPY80.0 million (US$0.5 million) of current portion of bond payable, JPY5.9 million (US$0.04 million) of long-term loans outstanding and JPY152.3 million (US$0.9 million) of bond payable, as compared to JPY100.0 million (US$0.6 million) of short-term loans, JPY151.0 million (US$0.9 million) of current portion of long-term loans, JPY40.0 million (US$0.2 million) of current portion of bond payable, JPY24.4 million (US$0.2 million) of long-term loans outstanding, and JPY18.2 million (US$0.1 million) of bond payable as of December 31, 2025.
Our Business Model
Our business model is predicated on our competitive advantage: the development of coaches who can enhance children’s non-cognitive skills through sports, and our expertise in integrating these skills with sports programs. Non-cognitive skills encompass attributes related to an individual’s personality, attitudes, behaviors, and social interactions.
We are committed to training coaches who can effectively foster children’s non-cognitive skills through sports. We pay fees to use public facilities (for instance, school gyms and grounds and municipal venues) capable of hosting these lessons. We tailor a variety of sports lesson programs in order to encourage our students’ interaction and enhance their non-cognitive skills.
Our coaches are expected to be exemplary adult role models who possess not only the skills to facilitate lessons but also the attributes of school teachers and parents. Having our coaches build robust relationships with children and their parents, our lessons become a valuable “third place” for children, alongside school and home, thereby increasing our customers’ switching cost and enhancing customer retention rate.
Trend Information
Our sports school business experiences seasonal fluctuations, with lower membership number around March due to school graduations, followed by growth from April to June when the new school year begins. Revenue from event hosting also peaks during school holidays in March, August, and December–January. Our social business cash flows show seasonality as some governmental contracts settle payments around fiscal year-end in March. For further details, see “Trend Information” under “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” in our annual report on Form 20-F, dated April 8, 2026.

Revenue
Total revenue increased by JPY490.0 million (US$3.0 million), or 8.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Sports school business revenue increased by JPY210.8 million (US$1.3 million), or 5.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by: (i) an increase of JPY194.2 million (US$1.2 million) in sports school business-other revenue, mainly attributable to services provided to a new customer, and (ii) an increase of JPY46.5 million (US$0.3 million) in membership fee revenue, mainly attributable to higher monthly membership fee rates, despite a 0.9% decrease in the period-end number of members. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of JPY33.0 million (US$0.2 million), or 4.1%, in event hosting revenue, primarily because the number of customers who joined events decreased by 9.3%, from 90,501 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 82,100 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, while higher revenue per participant partially offset the decrease. The number of customers who joined events refers to the total number of participants, including both members and non-members of the Company. We define the number of customers who participated in events as the total number of times customers attended throughout the six-month period. For example, if the same customer attends three events during the same period, this customer is counted as three customers.
Social business revenue increased by JPY279.2 million (US$1.7 million), or 18.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by: (i) an increase of JPY120.3 million (US$0.7 million) in school club activity support revenue due to increases in the number of contracted schools and club activities, and (ii) an increase of JPY113.1 million (US$0.7 million) in welfare and after-school revenue, primarily attributable to increased revenue from existing contracts, as well as acquisition of a new client.
Cost of revenue and gross profit
Cost of revenue increased by JPY165.0 million (US$1.0 million), or 4.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in salaries and welfare expenses of JPY284.4 million (US$1.7 million), or 10.5%, due mainly to business expansion, and an increase in school facility rental fees of JPY30.4 million (US$0.2 million), or 12.5%. These increases were partially offset by decreases in travel expenses of JPY81.0 million (US$0.5 million) and other cost of revenue of JPY57.9 million (US$0.4 million).

Selling, general, and administrative expenses

The increase was primarily attributable to: (i) an increase in promotion fees of JPY164.8 million (US$1.0 million), primarily due to business growth and a refinement of our expense classification approach beginning in fiscal 2026, (ii) an increase in outside services of JPY136.5 million (US$0.8 million), mainly reflecting acquisition-related costs, (iii) an increase in taxes and public dues of JPY36.4 million (US$0.2 million) due to higher capital-based taxes following our IPO, and (iv) an increase in travel expenses of JPY16.9 million (US$0.1 million), partly due to the refinement of our expense classification approach.

Income tax provisions
Income tax provisions were JPY35.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an income tax benefit of JPY5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. While the statutory tax rate was 30.6% for both periods, our effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026 were (10.6) % and 31.6%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was lower than the statutory tax rate primarily due to the tax deductibility of certain IPO-related costs that were capitalized for accounting purposes, partially offset by the effect of certain non-deductible expenses.
We had no tax obligation arising from other jurisdictions during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, we had no material dispute or unresolved tax issues with the relevant tax authorities.
Net income
As a result of the foregoing reasons, we reported net income of JPY77.1 million (US$0.5 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to net income of JPY53.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Adjusted income from operations
As a result of the foregoing reasons, we reported adjusted income from operations of JPY139.7 million (US$0.9 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to adjusted income from operations of JPY67.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation” below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation
In our report, we discuss key financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP to supplement our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis. This non-GAAP financial measure is reconciled from its most directly comparable financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP as follows:
| For the Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2026 | 2026 | ||||||||||
| JPY | JPY | US$ | ||||||||||
| INCOME FROM OPERATIONS | 67,929,244 | 92,309,685 | 567,676 | |||||||||
| Plus: acquisition-related costs(a) | - | 47,365,619 | 291,284 | |||||||||
| Adjusted INCOME FROM OPERATIONS | 67,929,244 | 139,675,304 | 858,960 | |||||||||
| (a) | Represents acquisition-related costs incurred in connection with our acquisition activities, including transaction-related costs, legal, financial and tax due diligence expenses, integration costs and other acquisition-related costs. These costs have been added back for normalization purposes as they are not considered reflective of our core operating performance. |
Our primary non-GAAP financial measure and corresponding metrics reflect how we evaluate our current and prior year operating results. As new events or circumstances arise, these definitions could change. When our definitions change, we provide the updated definitions. When items no longer impact our current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, we remove these items from our non-GAAP definitions.
Adjusted income from operations is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP (collectively referred to as the “non-GAAP financial measures”), and the use of the term adjusted income from operations may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures. We believe the non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with useful information with respect to our historical operations. We present the non-GAAP financial measure as a supplemental performance measure because we believe it facilitates a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on our results under GAAP, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period. Specifically, adjusted income from operations allows us to assess our performance without the impact of the specifically identified items that we believe do not directly reflect our core operations, including acquisition-related costs and other items that management does not consider reflective of our core operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measure also functions as a key performance indicator used to evaluate our operating performance internally, and it is used in connection with the determination of incentive compensation for management, including executive officers.
As our initial public offering was completed during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and the related listing-related and transformational expenses were specific to our initial public offering and related transformation activities, we do not expect to incur such expenses in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 or future periods. Accordingly, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, we have revised our presentation of adjusted income from operations and removed listing-related and transformational expenses from the adjustments to adjusted income from operations for all historical periods presented.
7
Adjusted income from operations is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to income from operations or any other financial statement data presented as indicators of financial performance or liquidity, each as presented in accordance with GAAP. Consequently, our non-GAAP financial measure should be considered together with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. We understand that although adjusted income from operations is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, it has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
| ● | adjusted income from operations does not fully reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
| ● | adjusted income from operations does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
| ● | adjusted income from operations does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on debt; and |
| ● | although depreciation and amortization expenses are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted income from operations does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. |
Because of these limitations, adjusted income from operations should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us to reinvest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.
Financial Guidance
Revenue is expected to be between US$82.9 million and US$95.7 million for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, an increase of approximately 10.8% to 27.9% from US$74.8 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Income from operations is expected to be between US$4.5 million and US$5.4 million for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, an increase of approximately 13.2% to 33.9% from US$4.0 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
The guidance includes the results of Well Resources (from May 1, 2026), Tokai Sports (from June 1, 2026) and SWIFT JAPAN (from July 1, 2026). It does not assume any further business acquisitions, restructuring activities or legal settlements during the period. The guidance is translated at the FY2025 assumed exchange rate of US$1 = JPY156.80, the same rate used in the first quarter, to eliminate the impact of foreign exchange volatility. This rate will be used for the guidance throughout fiscal 2026.

Financial Highlights | Supplementary Explanation | Decrease in School Membership ( YoY) The main factors were an increase in graduating members as existing members reached higher grades and a strategic shift in the timing of new member acquisition to improve service quality. Net revenue and income from operations reached record highs, reflecting a steadily strengthening business foundation. ※ 1 Main factors • As the number of members increases in the upper grades of elementary school, the number of graduated members (members who remained enrolled until the 6th grade of elementary school and graduate in March) has increased compared to the previous year. * Many of our 6th - grade elementary school members graduate from (withdraw from) the school in March, which is the elementary school graduation season. • In line with strengthening new employee training, we are strategically shifting customer acquisition timing. • As a result, the number of new classes opening in the first half of the year decreased , leading to a year - on - year decrease in enrollment. * In Japan, most new employees join their companies in April. • The termination of one franchise location resulted in a decrease in the number of members. In Q2 (YoY), despite a slight dip in membership, revenue and profit grew due to adjusted monthly fees and higher average spend per customer. Membership is expected to recover in Q3 and Q4 through new initiatives. *1: Comparison of H1 results from FY2025 onward (U.S. GAAP)

These costs have been added back for normalization purposes as they are not considered reflective of our core ope rating performance. Adjusted income from operations is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Acco unt ing Principles (“GAAP”) (collectively referred to as the “non - GAAP financial measures”), and the use of the terms adjusted income from operations may di ffer from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures.. We believe the non - GAAP financial measure provides investors with useful information with respect to our historical operations. We present the non - GAAP financial measure as supplemental performance measures because we believe it facilitates a comparative assessment of our oper ati ng performance relative to our performance based on our results under GAAP, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period. Specifically, adjusted income from operations allows us to assess our performance without the impact of the specifically iden tif ied items that we believe do not directly reflect our core operations, including acquisition - related costs and other items that management does not consider refl ective of our core operating performance. The non - GAAP financial measure also functions as key performance indicator used to evaluate our operating performance internall y, and it is used in connection with the determination of incentive compensation for management, including executive officers.

Supplementary materials on national policy ① <Source> Japan Sports Agency - Club Activity Reform Portal Site / New Guidelines Regarding Club Activity Reform Summary: Overview of the Guidelines for Reform of School Extracurricular Activities 1. Philosophy of the Reform The primary goal is to ensure that students can continue to enjoy sports and cultural activities in the future, despite the rapidly declining birthrate. By shifting from school - based activities to a community - wide support system, the reform aims to create new value and more diverse opportunities for all students. 2. Reform Timeline FY2023 – 2025: Reform Promotion Period FY2026 – 2028: Reform Implementation Period (Phase 1) FY2029 – 2031: Reform Implementation Period (Phase 2) Key Target: Realizing the transition of weekend/holiday activities to community - based clubs, in principle, across all schools during the implementation period starting in FY2026. 1. Key Policies and Certification System Weekends/Holidays: Prioritize the transition to community - based activities. Certification: Municipalities will establish a system to certify "Certified Community Club Activities." To be certified, clubs must meet specific requirements regarding activity hours (e.g., max 3 hours on holidays), rest days, and instructor qualifications. Benefits of Certification: Certified clubs will receive public support (financial aid, priority use of school facilities) and smoother participation in competitions. 2. Implementation and Addressing Challenges Support System: Municipalities take the lead in providing resources, appointing coordinators, and collaborating with private companies and universities. Safety and Standards: Strict measures will be taken to prevent misconduct, including the use of "Japanese version of DBS" (criminal record checks for instructors) and ensuring student safety (heatstroke prevention, etc.).Operational Challenges: Focus areas include securing instructors, finding activity venues, arranging transportation, and ensuring inclusivity for students with disabilities.

Supplementary materials on national policy ② <Source> Japan Sports Agency - Club Activity Reform Portal Site / New Guidelines Regarding Club Activity Reform Summary: Progress Status of Regional Transition for Extracurricular Activities (Weekends/Holidays) 1. Overall Progress Since the "Reform Promotion Period" began in FY2023, the transition of school club activities to the community has been progressing steadily. By FY2026 (the start of the implementation period), it is projected that approximately 30% (30.4%) of all club activities will have transitioned into community - based clubs. 2. Trends in the Number of Club Activities (Sports & Arts/Culture Combined) FY2023 (Actual): 11.2% total (4.7% regional transition + 6.5% regional cooperation). FY2026 (Projected): 36.6% total (30.4% regional transition + 6.2% regional cooperation). Observation: There is a significant shift towards full "regional transition" (becoming community clubs) rather than just "regional cooperation" (such as joint school teams). 3. Number of Participating Municipalities The number of local governments planning to implement regional transitions by FY2026 is increasing sharply: Sports: 1,097 municipalities Arts & Culture: 646 municipalities The data shows a clear upward trend, indicating that the movement to shift school activities to the local community is gaining momentum nationwide.

“In our core sports school business, we remain committed to delivering our distinctive educational services that foster children’s non-cognitive skills. Meanwhile, our social business continued to grow as we expanded our efforts to support local sports environments, increasing the number of contracted schools for club activity support to 478, up 37.0% year over year. We will continue to draw on the people and expertise we have developed through sports education to support children’s growth, address challenges facing local communities, and sustainably enhance corporate value.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company discusses a key financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) to supplement its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis. This non-GAAP financial measure is reconciled to its most directly comparable financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP as follows:
Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation

| For the Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2026 | 2026 | ||||||||||
| JPY | JPY | US$ | ||||||||||
| INCOME FROM OPERATIONS | 67,929,244 | 92,309,685 | 567,676 | |||||||||

| Adjusted INCOME FROM OPERATIONS | 67,929,244 | 139,675,304 | 858,960 | |||||||||
| (a) | Represents acquisition-related costs incurred in connection with the Company’s acquisition activities, including transaction-related costs, legal, financial and tax due diligence expenses, integration costs and other acquisition-related costs. These costs have been added back for normalization purposes as they are not considered reflective of the Company’s core operating performance. |

The Company’s primary non-GAAP financial measure and corresponding metrics reflect how the Company evaluates the Company’s current and prior year operating results. As new events or circumstances arise, these definitions could change. When the Company’s definitions change, the Company provides the updated definitions. When items no longer impact the Company’s current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, the Company removes these items from the Company’s non-GAAP definitions.
Adjusted income from operations is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP (collectively referred to as the “non-GAAP financial measures”), and the use of the term adjusted income from operations may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures. The Company believes the non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with useful information with respect to the Company’s historical operations. The Company presents the non-GAAP financial measure as a supplemental performance measure because the Company believes it facilitates a comparative assessment of the Company’s operating performance relative to the Company’s performance based on the Company’s results under GAAP, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period. Specifically, adjusted income from operations allows the Company to assess the Company’s performance without the impact of the specifically identified items that the Company believes do not directly reflect the Company’s core operations, including acquisition-related costs and other items that management does not consider reflective of the Company’s core operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measure also functions as a key performance indicator used to evaluate the Company’s operating performance internally, and it is used in connection with the determination of incentive compensation for management, including executive officers.
As the Company’s initial public offering was completed during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and the related listing-related and transformational expenses were specific to the Company’s initial public offering and related transformation activities, the Company does not expect to incur such expenses in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 or future periods. Accordingly, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, the Company has revised the Company’s presentation of adjusted income from operations and removed listing-related and transformational expenses from the adjustments to adjusted income from operations for all historical periods presented.
Adjusted income from operations is not a measurement of the Company’s financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to income from operations or any other financial statement data presented as indicators of financial performance or liquidity, each as presented in accordance with GAAP. Consequently, the Company’s non-GAAP financial measure should be considered together with the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company understands that although adjusted income from operations is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, it has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: adjusted income from operations does not fully reflect the Company’s cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; adjusted income from operations does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs; adjusted income from operations does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on debt; and although depreciation and amortization expenses are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted income from operations does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
Because of these limitations, adjusted income from operations should not be considered as discretionary cash available to the Company to reinvest in the growth of the Company’s business or as a measure of cash that will be available to the Company to meet the Company’s obligations.
