Yasuyuki Nozawa, Representative Director, President and CEO of LogProstyle said, “Fiscal year 2025 was a transformative year for LogProstyle, marked by the historic milestone as the first unlisted Japanese company to list its Japanese common shares directly on the NYSE American instead of through American Depository Receipts. Our revenue surged by 46% driven by robust demand across our core business, and net income more than doubled, validating our sustainable growth trajectory. We took decisive steps to expand our global footprint beyond the borders of Japan. We believe these initiatives properly position us to introduce authentic Japanese hospitality and lifestyle experiences on an international scale. As we look ahead, we remain committed to delivering value to shareholders through continued innovation, operational excellence, and strategic execution. I am grateful to our dedicated employees, partners, and customers for their trust and support as we redefine life style and set new standards for sustainable growth.”
