Raccoon plans a profit dip to widen its B2B platform
Raccoon finished the year to April 2026 with ¥6.574 billion in revenue and ¥1.32 billion in operating profit, but it is guiding for operating profit to fall to ¥600 million in the coming year as promotion spending rises. Management said fourth-quarter tests convinced it that heavier customer acquisition can accelerate growth, and its new midterm plan shifts attention toward adjusted EBITDA during a more M&A-minded phase. New services including URIHOmini, BizCheck and SD Direct show the practical version of that strategy: widen the funnel now, hope the margins catch up later.
