TOKYO, May 08 (Pulse News Wire) – YRGLM Inc. (3690.T) reported a significant surge in interim operating profit, reaching ¥285 million, marking a 400% increase compared to the same period last year despite the negative impact of its acquisition of Silver Egg Technology.
Revenue grew to ¥2.886 billion, driven by strong performance across existing businesses and the integration of Silver Egg since February. The company revised its full-year outlook based on improved earnings trends, now projecting higher profits. The acquisition of Silver Egg, completed through a tender offer effective January 2026, enhances YRGLM's commerce AI capabilities and vertical integration model. Key services such as real-time AI recommendation systems and marketing solutions contributed significantly to revenue growth.
In the near term, the merger is expected to result in a net loss of ¥100 million due to amortization expenses, but YRGLM anticipates turning profitable from fiscal year 2027 onwards. The integration also brings strategic benefits, including the appointment of Thomas Aquinas Foley as Chief AI Officer, leveraging his extensive experience in the Japanese AI market. YRGLM’s Commerce AI division saw substantial gains, while Marketing AI maintained steady revenues. The company continues to focus on enhancing customer experiences and maximizing sales through advanced AI technologies.
