Overview of FY2011 Financial Results and Business Outlook

"FY2011 results were satisfactory to us with revenues and income largely increasing. In addition to the good financial results, we saw good progress with our new services and businesses we've invested in, such as cloud computing services and ATM operation business. We can expect another double-digit growth the following year," said Koichi Suzuki, President and CEO of IIJ.

"Today's results demonstrate our successful strategy," continued Suzuki. "Combining our over 15 years of experience providing outsourcing services, pioneering technological skills in developing network services and our strong relationships with Japanese blue chip clients, we have been successful in attracting outsourcing and network service demands. Broadband services are growing as data traffic increases. Outsourcing services such as data center and security related services are growing fast along with customers' needs for professional IT support. Our cloud computing service "IIJ GIO" has also continued its revenue growth during its second year of service. IIJ GIO increased its number of clients and revenue for FY2011 reached over JPY3.1 billion compared to JPY0.6 billion the previous year."

"We have also strengthened our global network services towards the growing demands from Japanese companies that are heading into global markets. We are now prepared to provide Cloud computing services in the United States and in China together with global internet-VPN service and bilingual help desk service. We have also established a subsidiary and a representative office in the Asian region.

"As a result, combined with the full contribution of IIJ Global Solutions which we acquired in September 2010, our FY2011 revenues increased by 18.1% YoY and operating income increased by 53.4% YoY. Although there were initial cost burden related to our new services and projects, especially cloud computing services, gross margin related to network service increased. In addition to that, ATM operation business which we have been engaging as a new supplemental growth driver nearly reached its break-even point in 4Q11."
