Overview of FY2013 Financial Results and Business Outlook

"Our business bases have been largely strengthened with several unconventional transactions in FY2013, while income results were weak mainly due to certain large customers' revenues leveling off as we reported in 3Q earnings. We've pursued some progressive large-scale projects by leveraging our cloud facilities and services, MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) infrastructure and system integration features. We strongly believe these projects should surely contribute to our continuous revenue and income growth for the coming few years," said Koichi Suzuki, Founder and CEO of IIJ.

"Our cloud services "IIJ GIO" continued to grow in revenue, the number of customers, and system volume. Same as our prominent connectivity business, we mainly target large institutions with our reliable and value-added cloud service features. As seen in the case of Sompo Japan, one of the largest Japanese insurance companies, extensively adopting IIJ GIO to their IT system platforms, we're starting to see the usage of cloud services by some Japanese blue-chips becoming more advanced and conjugated. We also anticipate that BigData trend should encourage the adoption of cloud services. These recent changes in market momentum are certainly tailwinds for IIJ in the middle term," followed Eijiro Katsu, President and COO of IIJ.

"Triggered by our LTE SIM card offerings to consumers, our MVNO business has largely expanded in FY2013. Consumers can enjoy much cheaper smart-phones connectivity with our SIM card services than mobile carriers' expensive services. These MVNO services are relatively new in the Japanese market and we're anticipating further penetration to continue. We're also receiving increasing requirements from large institutions to act as MVNE (Mobile Virtual Network Enabler), asking us to offer our established large MVNO infrastructure. The demands for M2M (Machine to Machine connection) are also continuously expanding. By grasping these business opportunities for both corporate and consumers, we believe we'll be able to have continuous income increase by improving our network utilization," said Katsu.

1 Unless otherwise stated, all financial figures discussed in this announcement are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All financial figures are unaudited and consolidated. The translation of Japanese yen into U.S. dollars is solely for the convenience of readers outside of Japan. The rate used for the translation was JPY102.98 per US$1.00, which was the noon buying rate on March 31, 2014.

"As for systems integration, we continued to see great demands supported by overall Japanese economic recovery. We've acquired several flagship projects to which we jointly offer our network services and systems integration. We believe strong demands for network related systems investment and outsourcing from Japanese corporate should continue and our role to offer total network solutions become more important," continued Katsu.

"For FY2014, we shall devote ourselves to return to strong profit growth. We'd like to pursue on selling profitable monthly recurring revenue services more efficiently, increasing the number of large accounts, implementing stricter control on systems integration profitability and so on. At the same time, we will continuously implement our middle- to long- term growth strategies, including continuous recruitment of employees in aiming to dramatically enlarge our business scale. And also, we'd like to keep looking into M&A opportunities," concluded Katsu.

Revenues

Total revenues were JPY114,272 million, up 7.6% YoY.

Network Services revenue was JPY67,286 million, up 3.1% YoY.

Revenues for Internet connectivity services for corporate use were JPY16,585 million, up 3.5% YoY. The increase was mainly due to the increasing demands for mobile and broader bandwidth services. However, revenues were weaker than expected as IP service revenues from certain large network carrier with large IP contracts did not increase as much as we initially targeted for FY2013.

Revenues for Internet connectivity services for home use were JPY6,025 million, up 10.2% YoY. The increase in revenues from our low-priced LTE SIM card offerings covered the decrease in both contracts and revenues from our legacy-type home use internet services. Number of contracts for LTE SIM card offerings reached approximately 139,000 contracts as of March 31, 2014 (approximately 50,000 contracts as of March 31, 2013).

WAN services revenues were JPY25,006 million, down 0.6% YoY. The price down pressure by certain large customers had negative impact on revenues and income despite the continuous increase in revenues from other customers.

Outsourcing services revenues were JPY19,670 million, up 5.9% YoY, mainly due to the increase in revenues of "IIJ GIO Hosting Package Services". However, revenues were weaker than expected as cloud and data center revenues from certain large game providers did not increase as much as we initially targeted for FY2013.

FY2014 Financial Targets

Our financial targets for FY2014 are as follows:

         (JPY in millions)
         
  Revenues Operating
Income
Income before Income
Tax Expense
Net Income
attributable to IIJ
1H FY2014 Target 57,500 2,800 2,700 1,750
Full FY2014 Target 123,000 7,200 7,000 4,500

With the steady recovery of the Japanese economy, IT investment in Japan is expected to continue during FY2014. In mid- to long-term, the ongoing demands to outsource corporate internal IT systems and network including the full use of cloud services would continue to be a great business opportunity, even with the intense competition in such areas. Under such competitive market, in FY2014, we should continue to make various business developments to strengthen our business and competitiveness. We would also improve gross margin for network service and systems integration by further focusing on increasing our stock revenues.

We target revenue of JPY123 billion, up 7.6% YoY. We expect our monthly recurring revenue services to further accumulate including a significant increase in the revenue for consumer LTE SIM card offering, cloud-related revenues to reach approximately JPY13 billion, systems construction revenues to increase and ATM operation business revenues to continuously increase.

We target operating cost and expenses of JPY115.8 billion, up 6.7% YoY. We expect continuous increase in personnel-related expenses, increase in depreciation of network equipment, additional expenses from the relocation of headquarter in the first half of FY2014 and increase in costs related to purchasing and outsourcing in relation to SI revenue growth.

For operating income, we target JPY7.2 billion, up 25.8% YoY. We expect gross margin and gross margin ratio of recurring network services and systems integration to increase along with recurring revenue growth, as well as the profit contribution from our cloud service "IIJ GIO" and ATM operation business.

We target income before income tax expense (benefit) of JPY7.0 billion, up 11.6% YoY, considering interest expenses and others.

We target net income attributable to IIJ of JPY4.5 billion, up 1.3% YoY, considering taxes calculated by a normal statutory rate and income of equity method investees and non-controlling interests.
