1. Qualitative information regarding quarterly results (1)Explanation of operating results
During the nine months of the fiscal year, the global economy, in general, continued to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic while the situation varied from country to country. Japanese economy, however, remained uncertain despite expectations for reopening of economy with high vaccination rates and epidemic prevention measures.
In light of this environment, the Company has actively expanded the functions of its fully automated robo-advisor "WealthNavi," increased the number of its alliance partners, hired human resources to strengthen its business base, and engaged in advertising activities such as TV commercials, all to achieve continuous business growth.
Regarding the expansion of the functions of "WealthNavi," the Company began offering "Robo-NISA" as part of its direct business in February. "Robo-NISA" is a feature leveraging the NISA's tax exemption merits while enabling the wealth management of long-term investment with a globally diversified portfolio through "WealthNavi." The Company also started offering "Robo- NISA" for 15 alliance partners. The details are as follows (below) -
June: "WealthNavi for SBI Securities," a service provided in partnership with SBI Securities Co., Ltd. "Hokkoku Omakase Navi," a service provided in partnership with The Hokkoku Bank, Ltd
July: "WealthNavi for SBI Sumishin Net Bank," a service provided in partnership with SBI Sumishin Net Bank, Ltd "WealthNavi for Sony Bank," a service provided in partnership with Sony Bank Inc.
August: 11 other alliance partners
In addition, the Company has been promoting the expansion of its alliance partners. In August, the Company and The Chukyo Bank, Ltd. started offering "Chukyo Omakase Navi". Also the Company concluded business alliance agreements with The Taiko Bank, Ltd. in June and plans to offer a managed account service with a hybrid of online and face-to-face support.
As a result, as of September 30, 2021, there were 303 thousand users and assets under management totaled 548.8 billion yen. Consequently, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the operating revenue was 3,210 million yen (up 81.9% year-over-
year), and the net operating revenue after deducting financial expenses of 15 million yen from the total operating revenue was 3,195 million yen (up 82.6% year-over-year), for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. In addition, the selling, general, and administrative expenses cost was 3,463 million yen (up 37.6% year-over-year), resulting in an operating profit excluding advertising expenses of 954 million yen (up 1,255.8% year-over-year), an operating loss of 268 million yen (a loss of 766 million yen in the same period of previous fiscal year; same hereinafter), an ordinary loss of 268 million yen (a loss of 765 million yen), and a quarterly net loss of 271 million yen (a loss of 767 million yen).
The Company only operates in a single segment being the robo-advisor business, and thus, no segment information is reported.
(2)Explanation of financial position
(Assets)
Total assets as of September 30, 2021 were 19,330 million yen, up 3,952 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to the increase of 3,400 million yen in cash segregated as deposits for customers.
(Liabilities)
Total liabilities as of September 30, 2021 were 12,012 million yen, up 3,550 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to a 3,370 million yen increase in deposits received associated with the increase in funds received from customers, etc.
(Net assets)
Total net assets as of September 30, 2021 were 7,318 million yen, up 402 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly caused by an increase in share capital of 336 million yen from a third-party allotment related to a secondary offering through an over-allotment etc., an increase in legal capital surplus of 336 million yen, and a decrease in retained earnings of 271 million yen due to the recording of a net loss.
