The Japan Animal Advanced Medical Center ＜6039＞ announced consolidated financial results for the 2nd quarter (24/4/9) of the fiscal year ending 2025/3 on the 7th. Sales increased 29.6% from the same period last year to 2.569 billion yen, operating profit increased 119.6% to 0.35 billion yen, ordinary profit increased 131.3% to 0.351 billion yen, and interim net profit attributable to parent company shareholders increased 148.4% to 0.242 billion yen.

Recruitment of veterinarians progressed steadily at existing hospitals, and medical treatment acceptance capacity improved, so the number of treatments increased drastically. Osaka Hospital, which began medical treatment in 2023/6, achieved a single-month surplus in 2024/5, 12 months after opening, due to strengthening relationships with partner hospitals mainly in Kansai by holding seminars, etc., and the radiotherapy facility (second facility following Kawasaki Main Hospital) that began operation in May was well received against the backdrop of the needs of owners who wanted to select treatments that were less burdensome to animals, etc., and the situation continued smoothly thereafter. As a result, in secondary care services, the number of initial diagnoses (number of newly accepted cases) was 4,981 cases (29.2% increase compared to the same period last year), the total number of cases treated (total number of initial cases and number of revisits) was 17,089 cases (26.9% increase from the same period last year), and the number of surgeries was 1,502 (29.8% increase from the same period last year). Also, the number of partner hospitals was 4,551, an increase of 191 from the same period last year. The diagnostic imaging service continued to strengthen sales activities for primary care facilities, but since construction was carried out to replace MRIs with the latest models at some facilities and they were closed from July to August, the number of tests remained flat compared to the same period last year. As for health management equipment rental and sales, the number of rentals and sales increased compared to the same period last year due to continued promotion of measures to strengthen relationships with agents.

Regarding the full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, the initial plan for sales is 4.82 billion yen, up 12.9% from the previous fiscal year, operating income is 0.625 billion yen, up 25.8% from the same period, ordinary profit is 0.625 billion yen, up 27.6%, and net income attributable to parent company shareholders is 0.44 billion yen, up 30.5% from the same period.
