■Growth Strategy

4. Our point of view

Signpost ＜3996＞ is actively developing innovation businesses and DX/regional co-creation projects utilizing in-house technology and open innovation, using consulting services for the financial industry as a stable profit base. Then, as a result of promoting a strategy to achieve growth and transition to the monetization phase from the 2022/2 fiscal year, the 2024/2 fiscal year turned into a surplus and a transition to the profit stage was realized. Furthermore, the transition to the growth stage is expected to accelerate in the 2025/2 fiscal year, and we highly value this point. Also, in the medium to long term, profit expansion is expected through business development utilizing in-house technology and open innovation, and in particular, attention is being paid to the development of unmanned payment systems and unmanned store systems for stores that contribute to solving retail issues.
