Earnings Report

AVAL DATA CORPORATION <6918> [TSE Std] announced its financial results after the market closed on February 13th (15:30). The ordinary profit (non-consolidated) for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2025 (April to December) dropped 32.3% from the same period last year to 1.2 billion yen.

In addition, the full-year ordinary profit has decreased 32.2%, from the previous forecast of 2.28 billion yen to 1.55 billion yen (compared to 2.27 billion yen in the previous period). This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of a 31.8% decrease in profit.

Based on the full-year plan announced by the company after the downward revision, our estimate of the ordinary profit for the October to March period (2H) has decreased 51.4%, from the previous forecast of 1.42 billion yen to 0.69 billion yen (compared to 1 billion yen in the same period of the previous year). This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of a 31.2% decrease in profit.

Due to a decline in performance, the company has reduced its planned annual dividend for the current fiscal year from the original plan of 94 yen to 70 yen (compared to 317 yen in the previous period).

In the most recent three-month period, from October to December (3Q), the ordinary profit dropped to 0.34 billion yen, a 32.0% decrease compared to the same period last year. The operating profit margin decreased from 15.4% in the same period last year to 11.9%.
