Highlights of Full FY2009 Financial Results

  • Revenues were JPY68,006 million ($728.1 million), down 2.5% YoY. While connectivity and outsourcing service grew steadily, systems integration revenue was heavily affected by the decrease in IT related investments in Japan.
  • Operating income was JPY3,412 million ($36.5 million), up 16.9% YoY, mainly due to the increase in connectivity and outsourcing service gross margin and the decrease in administrative expenses. Operating loss related to the ATM operation business was JPY1,000 million ($10.7 million).
  • Net income attributable to IIJ2 was JPY2,234 million ($23.9 million), up 57.4% YoY.

Highlights of Fourth Quarter FY2009 Financial Results

  • Revenues were JPY19,694 million ($210.9 million), up 4.0% YoY. Systems construction revenues increased due to seasonal factors and outsourcing service continuously increased YoY, respectively.
  • Operating income was JPY1,404 million ($15.0 million), up 30.9% YoY, mainly due to the increase in SI gross margin and the decrease in administrative expenses.
  • Net income attributable to IIJ was JPY1,101 million ($11.8 million), up 3.4% YoY.

Financial Targets for FY2010

  • IIJ targets revenues of JPY71.0 billion, operating income of JPY4.3 billion, income before income tax expense (benefit)2 of JPY3.7 billion and net income attributable to IIJ of JPY2.6 billion for FY2010.

Overview of Full FY2009 Financial Results and Business Outlook

"It has been truly a tough year for us with the drop in Japanese IT investments heavily affecting our revenue," said Koichi Suzuki, President and CEO of IIJ. "Yet, amid the tough economic situation, we have exceeded our full year profit target," continued Suzuki.

"Recurring revenue steadily increased YoY followed by the continuous demands for outsourcing services for cost reduction purposes. The increase in contracted number of over Gbps connectivity is also a supporting fact that demands for higher bandwidth connectivity remains. Additionally, our continuous effort for cost reduction has resulted in the improvement in profitability. Accordingly, despite the weak Japanese economy, our profit exceeded our full year target. We have also raised our FY2009 year-end cash dividend to JPY1,250 from JPY1,000 per share of common stock in response to our business results.

"We have also made achievements in the Group business strategy. We've merged two of our 100% consolidated subsidiary, which mainly provides SI, on April 1, 2010 to operate the Group more efficiently as well as to seize opportunities to further enhance our business in the IT service market. This merger will allow us to combine and strengthen our network service and SI business structure.

"As for our FY2010 business environment, although how strongly the SI revenues will return is still uncertain, we are seeing signs of recovery in systems construction along with the slow but recovering economy. We believe Japanese companies have been refraining from IT investment for more than enough time and that they will eventually need to start investing in order for them to maintain competitiveness. Our new cloud computing service "IIJ GIO" is also starting up well and are expected to contribute to revenue in the coming fiscal year. And of course, demands for higher bandwidth connectivity and outsourcing services remain. There are positive factors for our future business outlook.

"For our ATM operation business, it is currently in its starting-up phase. We are propelling to start-up a business, similar to Seven Bank's ATM operation business, and we target to reach break even at some point during the later half of FY2010."

FY2010 Financial Targets (announced on May 14, 2010)

         (JPY in millions)
  Revenues Operating

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

attributable to IIJ

Full FY2010 71,000 4,300 3,700 2,600

We target revenue of JPY71,000 million (up 4.4% YoY), operating income of JPY4,300 million (up 26.0% YoY), income before income tax expense (benefit) of JPY3,700 million (up 29.4% YoY) and net income attributable to IIJ of JPY2,600 million (up 16.4% YoY) for the full FY2010 financial targets.

We expect our connectivity and outsourcing service revenues, a recurring revenue, to continue to increase steadily along with its ordinary course of growth. As for the systems integration, while demands are expected to increase, the full recover of IT investments are still uncertain, and because the order backlog for systems operation and maintenance as of March 2010 decreased by JPY1,613 million YoY as a result of a size-down in a certain contracted account, we expect systems integration revenue to decrease compared to FY2009. As for the ATM operation business which is in its business start-up phase, while we target to reach break even at some point during the later half of FY2010, we expect operating loss of around JPY400 million related to this business for FY2010.
