Azoom Co., Ltd. (TSE: 3496) reported consolidated first-half (interim) results for the first half of FY9/2026 (October 1, 2025–March 31, 2026; J-GAAP). Revenue rose 23.5% to ¥7,806 million, operating profit rose 19.9% to ¥1,385 million, ordinary profit rose 19.6% to ¥1,382 million, and interim net profit attributable to owners of the parent climbed 30.9% to ¥995 million. EPS was ¥81.06 and comprehensive income reached ¥1,003 million (+32.1%).
Parking platform and idle-asset utilization
Azoom runs the "Az-PARK" monthly-parking (tsukigime) brokerage and management platform alongside a broader idle-asset utilization business spanning parking, real estate and storage. Continued expansion of managed lots and listings drove the double-digit revenue and profit growth, as the company converts under-used land and space into recurring rental income for property owners while matching demand from drivers and tenants.
Balance sheet, split and dividend
Total assets stood at ¥8,854 million, net assets at ¥6,558 million and the equity ratio at a comfortable 74.0%. Azoom completed a 1-for-2 common-stock split effective October 1, 2025; the FY9/2026 dividend forecast is ¥126.00 (¥63 interim + ¥63 year-end) on the post-split share count, reflecting the company's continued shareholder-return commitment alongside its growth investment.
Full-year guidance: ~20% growth
For the full FY9/2026, management guides revenue of ¥17,000 million (+26.1%), operating profit of ¥3,150 million (+20.5%), ordinary profit of ¥3,140 million (+20.4%) and net profit of ¥2,200 million (+20.1%), with EPS of ¥179.27. The first-half result puts the company comfortably on track, with interim revenue and profit both running ahead of the implied half-year pace and the parking platform continuing to add managed capacity.
