Helping to realize a society in which future generations can live with peace
of mind by resolving
today's social issues.
We would like to express our gratitude to our stakeholders for their
continuing support.
S-Pool was founded in 1999 to realize the following social mission: Applying
the power of
outsourcing to support corporate innovation and solutions to society's
challenges.
In our 25th fiscal year (ended November 30, 2024), revenue and operating
profit remained at about
the same level as the previous fiscal year, as solid performance in the
three main businesses of
Special Needs Employment Services, Environmental Management Support
Services, and Wide-area
Administrative BPO Services offset the decline in sales from Human Resource
Outsourcing Services.
Although revenue and profits declined in the Human Resource Outsourcing
Services, signs of a
recovery in demand for call center operations began to emerge in the
second half of the fiscal year, and sales appear to have bottomed out.
The resulting revenue totaled 25.55 billion yen (down 0.9% year on year),
operating profit stood
at 2.78 billion yen (up 0.2% year on year), and profit attributable to
owners of the parent at
2.09 billion yen (up 21.4% year on year).
In our 26th fiscal year (ended November 30, 2025) we will aim for a re-turn
toward increased
revenue and profit. Demand for our Special Needs Employment Services is
expected to remain high.
In addition to the existing farms in the three major metropolitan areas, we
will be preparing for
a nationwide expansion after 2026. In Environmental Management Support
Services, focusing on
growing our customer base, we will strengthen the revenue foundations by
expanding the service and
seeking out new customers. In the wide-area administrative BPO service, as
with last year, we are
expecting orders to cluster in 2H, National projects continue growing YoY.
We will secure orders
by enhancing sales centered on the local governments with whom we have
transaction track records.
Meanwhile, in the Human Resource Outsourcing Services, the Company will aim
to bottom out sales by
capturing the trend of recovering demand for call center operations. We will
differentiate
ourselves from competitors by strengthening the consu ting function of
employees (field
consultants) stationed at temporary staffing sites, which is a distinctive
feature of our service,
and by enhancing their expertise.
As we head into the future, the S-Pool Group is committed to playing an
integral role in
realizing a sustainable society and serving as a leading social enterprise
in Japan. We appreciate
your continued understanding and support.
