Synchro Food Misses Listing Standards, Enters Improvement Period

TOKYO, Jun 24 (Pulse News Wire) – Synchro Food CO.,LTD. (3963.T) entered an improvement period due to failing to meet listing standards as of June 24, 2026.

As of June 24, 2026, the company's circulating stock market value did not comply with the requirements. If improvements are not made by March 31, 2026, the company could face delisting on March 31, 2027. The company’s current status shows 160,980 units with a circulating stock market value of ¥9.040 billion, falling short of the requirement of ¥10.00 billion or more. The improvement period ends on March 31, 2026. Failure to meet the criteria could result in the company being designated as a delisted candidate, potentially leading to delisting on March 31, 2027. To address the issue, Synchro Food plans to implement various measures, including restructuring revenue streams.

In the fiscal year ending June 24, 2026, performance fell short of expectations due to rapid changes in market conditions affecting its primary service—job advertisement services. Specific challenges included declines in the food industry, shifts towards foreign worker recruitment, and changes in payment methods from advertising fees to success-based commissions. The company intends to introduce new fee structures such as success-based commission models for job matching and foreign worker recruitment. Additionally, Synchro Food will optimize its product offerings based on market needs and leverage existing SEO expertise and data resources. AI integration will further enhance operational efficiency and resource allocation. Furthermore, the company will reassess its portfolio, focusing on high-growth areas through strategic investments and divestitures.

These efforts aim to improve profitability and restore investor confidence.
