▼(-4.59% Downside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:08/07/26
The score is primarily held back by still-weak fundamentals—ongoing operating losses, negative free cash flow, and rising leverage despite improving margins and a narrowing net loss. Technical indicators add moderate support (positive MACD and price above short-term averages), but valuation is not supportive due to a negative P/E and no dividend yield data.
Positive Factors
Improving profitability and margins
The company narrowed losses sharply in 2025 and reported a stronger gross margin (~32.6%) and a net margin improvement to -5.2% from -24.5% and -33.1%. This indicates structural progress in cost control and product mix that can sustain margin recovery over several quarters.
Negative Factors
Persistent negative free cash flow
Despite a small operating cash flow improvement in 2025 (~¥35m), free cash flow remains negative (~-¥34m). Persistent FCF deficits limit internal funding for capex or marketing, force reliance on external financing, and constrain strategic investments over the coming 2–6 months.
