The company, which manages youth sports programs and community engagement services, saw its social business revenue climb 24.1% to JPY791.4 million. CEO Kiyotaka Ito attributed this growth to an expansion in school club support and after-school daycare operations. While sports school membership experienced a minor decline following seasonal graduations, higher monthly fees successfully offset the drop, resulting in a 5.6% revenue increase for that segment.

Leifras Revenue Hits Record High Amid School Club Privatization Push
Tokyo-based sports educator Leifras Co., Ltd. reported record-high quarterly revenue of JPY3.0 billion for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, a 10% increase year-over-year. Despite a slight dip in operating income, the company is leveraging Japan’s national policy shift to transition school club activities to private-sector providers.
Financial statements show net income rose 1.5% to JPY124.3 million. Although operating income fell to JPY153.3 million from JPY166.1 million in the same period last year, management cited acquisition-related costs and strategic investments as necessary drivers for long-term growth. The company maintains its full-year financial guidance, projecting revenue between $82.9 million and $95.7 million for 2026, assuming no further restructuring or acquisition activities.
