Highlights of Financial Results for 3Q16
 
Revenues JPY113,602 million (up 14.3% YoY)

Net Income attributable to IIJ  JPY1,910 million (down 25.8% YoY)

Overview of 3Q16 Financial Results and Business Outlook

“Our continuous business and service developments are reflected in our strong revenue accumulation. 3Q16 three-month revenue growth year over year was 16.0%: 2Q16 12.0%, 1Q16 15.0%, 4Q15 17.2% and 3Q15 11.0%. We continue to focus on investing in the fields of cloud, mobile, security, and next generation network usage such as IoT and BigData. Mainly due to the overall cost increase along with the recent aggressive business investments and the deterioration of systems integration gross margin from 1H162, 3Q16 nine-month operating income decreased year over year,” said Eijiro Katsu, President and COO of IIJ.

“Mobile services continued to be a leading revenue growth driver. 3Q16 nine-month revenue grew by 78.0% year over year to JPY19.1 billion and the total subscription as of 3Q16-end reached to 1.7 million, an increase of 59.4% year over year. Transactions by our 124 MVNE clients, including MVNOs, prominent retailers, and many cable TV operators, continued to expand. Other contributing factors for the strong 3Q16 revenue growth were an export project of our container type data center to the Republic of Laos3 and continuous revenue accumulation of cloud services and non-mobile network services,” said Katsu.

“We’re making continuous progresses of our business developments this fiscal year. We’ll be the first Japanese full-MVNO service provider as we aim to capture enterprises’ mobile needs such as IoT and BigData type of usages which are expected to be implemented much more widely in the near future. We established a joint venture4 with a major Japanese broadcasting company, Nippon Television Netowrk Corporation, to become a main CDN5 provider in the coming age of Internet-based broadcasting including 4K. Regarding security services, we further enhanced “IIJ DDoS Protection Services” by constructing worldwide network systems to protect our clients from global DDoS attacks. We launched “IIJ IoT Services,” packaged service offering necessary function to build IoT systems. We believe our recent actions shall make our role and value as a service platform provider of network, cloud, mobile, security and network outstanding in the middle to long term. We also expect that expansion of service revenues from these continuous business developments should generate continuous gross margin improvement which leads to operating income growth going forward,” concluded Koichi Suzuki, Founder, Chairman and CEO of IIJ.
