The decrease was primarily due to the discontinuation of e-commerce store set-up services, which had a higher cost of revenue relative to total revenue. Gross Profit Gross profit was JPY671.6 million ($4.5 million) in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of 0.2% from JPY 673.3 million in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.
