Net Income Doubles Year on Year

• Over the last 12 months, net income rose from about ¥2,797 million to ¥5,310 million, while trailing EPS climbed from ¥29.3 to ¥53.5.
• What stands out for a bullish view is how this 102 percent earnings jump lines up with forecasts of roughly 23 percent annual earnings growth.
  • Trailing revenue also expanded from about ¥26.9 billion to ¥34.3 billion, so higher profit is backed by a larger business rather than just one off cost shifts.
  • Analysts looking for around 20 percent yearly revenue growth can point to this trailing step up as evidence that the platform has been scaling beyond its earlier base.

Strong post listing profit growth like this often makes investors ask whether the current trajectory can hold as the company matures.

Margins Push Up To 15.8 Percent

• Trailing net margin improved from 10.5 percent to 15.8 percent, meaning more of each yen of the roughly ¥34.3 billion in sales is translating into profit.
• From a bullish angle, this margin expansion heavily supports the idea that the model gets more efficient at scale.
  • Quarterly net income stayed above ¥1,250 million in every FY 2025 quarter, suggesting the higher margin level was not dependent on a single spike.
  • With all four FY 2025 quarters posting EPS above ¥12, the earnings base looks more evenly spread than in FY 2024, when one quarter delivered only about ¥5.3 of EPS.

For a beginner investor, rising margins like this usually signal that fixed costs are being spread across a bigger revenue base.

Premium P E Versus Growth Outlook

• At a share price of ¥1,345, Timee trades on about 26.1 times trailing earnings, compared with roughly 13.5 times for the wider professional services group and 15.9 times for peers.
• Critics highlight that this premium valuation leans heavily on the growth story.
  • Earnings and revenue are both forecast to grow a bit above 20 percent per year, which is well ahead of the 4.6 percent market revenue pace but still needs to justify paying more than industry multiples.
  • The implied upside to the ¥1,762.50 analyst price target is meaningful from today’s level, so the bearish focus on a high multiple sits alongside a market that still models higher future value.

Paying up for growth like this is normal in fast expanding names, but it does leave less room if the growth path slows.
