Yumir Link <4372> announced its financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2024 on the 12th. Revenue was 1.981 billion yen, an increase of 15.9% compared to the same period last year, operating profit was 0.469 billion yen, an increase of 9.7%, ordinary profit was 0.469 billion yen, an increase of 9.6%, and net income for the quarter was 0.324 billion yen, an increase of 9.7%. Both revenue and operating profit reached all-time highs.
During the cumulative period of the third quarter, the company started providing "Cuenote SMS for Salesforce" in July 2024, which integrates with Salesforce, enabling seamless SMS sending from the Salesforce management screen, thus improving user efficiency. In the same month, the company partnered with Koku to start offering email distribution operation support "Melsappo" and total support for digital marketing "Digi Sappo," allowing for email marketing and digital marketing support tailored to corporate challenges. Additionally, in August, the "Other Connection Judgment Function" was added as a single option to the SMS distribution service "Cuenote SMS," reducing the risk of messages being received by individuals other than the intended recipient due to changes in phone numbers.
Regarding the overview of revenue by service type, stock-type revenue increased by 15.0% year-on-year to 1.918 billion yen. This includes subscription revenue for Cuenote saas (service usage) and software maintenance revenue. The cumulative period of the third quarter continued to see progress in the introduction to enterprise companies, and the number of deliveries was increased. The total amount of regular contracts at the end of the third quarter was 0.22 billion yen, reflecting an increase of 17.3%.
Spot-type revenue increased by 50.7% to 0.063 billion yen. This includes initial sales of Cuenote saas (initial usage registrations, customizations, and security certificate acquisition services) as well as software license sales (on-premises). The revenue during the cumulative period of the third quarter was strong due to stable new orders for SaaS and growth in software license sales.
The performance forecast for the fiscal year ending December 2024 remains unchanged, with revenue expected to increase by 11.0% year-on-year to 2.57 billion yen, operating profit to increase by 3.0% to 0.61 billion yen, ordinary profit to increase by 3.0% to 0.61 billion yen, and net income to increase by 2.7% to 0.42 billion yen.
