Earnings Report

Livero Inc. <9245> [TSE-G] announced its financial results at noon (12:00) on November 14th. The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2024 (January to September) surged by 2.4 times that of the same period last year, reaching 575 million yen. The progress rate against the full-year plan of 403 million yen is 142.7%, but was lower than the the three-year average of 180.4%.

Based on the third-quarter cumulative performance announced by the company and the unchanged full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the consolidated ordinary loss for the October to December period (4Q) is expected to expand to a loss of 172 million yen (compared to a loss of 58 million yen in the same period last year).

At the same time, the company, which had previously planned no dividend for the current fiscal year, has decided to implement a year-end lump-sum dividend of 24 yen (compared to no dividend in the prior term).

In the most recent three-month period, from July to September (3Q), the consolidated ordinary loss improved to a deficit of loss of 6 million yen (compared to a loss of 23 million yen in the same period last year). The operating profit/loss margin improved from -4.0% in the same period last year to -1.0%.
