giftee Inc. [4449.T]

TOKYO, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Giftee Inc., listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market under code number 4449, announced today that it has reported an extraordinary loss of ¥935 million for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The company also disclosed differences between its previously published earnings forecast and actual performance figures.

According to the report, Giftee's consolidated net sales for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, amounted to ¥14.149 billion, surpassing the initial forecast of ¥14.298 billion. However, the company experienced a significant extraordinary loss due to a substantial decline in the value of investment securities held by the firm.

Specifically, Giftee noted that the parent company’s attributable profit for the fiscal year was ¥935 million, which is lower than initially anticipated. This deviation from the projected figures can be attributed to several factors, including a more optimistic outlook during the previous forecast period. The company’s consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) stood at ¥3.740 billion, exceeding the estimated ¥3.551 billion. Operating income reached ¥2.603 billion compared to the forecasted ¥2.408 billion, while ordinary income was slightly higher at ¥2.208 billion versus the expected ¥2.192 billion.

In addition to these variances, Giftee reported a special loss of ¥364 million related to a decrease in the valuation of certain investment securities. These securities had suffered a significant drop in market value relative to their acquisition cost, necessitating impairment charges. The special loss was recorded in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

Overall, despite some positive deviations in key operational metrics such as EBITDA and operating income, the extraordinary loss significantly impacted the overall profitability of Giftee Inc. for the fiscal year.
