Presentation
Moderator: Thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to join us today for the I-NET
Corporation’s fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 financial results briefing and live streaming.
Now, we would like to begin the financial results briefing. First of all, I would like to introduce today's
attendees. Sakai, Representative Director, Executive President of I-NET Corporation.
Sakai: Thank you very much.
Moderator: And Wanibuchi, Representative Director, Senior Managing Executive Officer.
Wanibuchi: Thank you very much.
Moderator: Uchida, Director and Managing Executive Officer.
Uchida: Thank you very much.
Moderator: Next, I will explain the flow of today's session. First of all, Sakai will explain the financial results
for this fiscal year, and then we will have a question-and-answer session.
Please note that due to time constraints, we may not be able to answer all of your questions today. We
appreciate your understanding in advance.
After the briefing is over, a questionnaire screen will appear, and we would appreciate if you would answer
the questionnaire. Thank you for your cooperation.
The time has come, so we will begin. President Sakai, please.
Sakai: My name is Sakai, the President of I-NET. Thank you very much for giving me your precious time today.
This financial results briefing will be held online for the first time, and business in this changing environment
is very active. However, due to the spread of COVID-19, many of our customers were affected and the previous
year has been a struggle for us.
Although we announced our earnings forecast in July last year, the start-up of System development services
was delayed more than we had expected, and our 10 consecutive years of increased sales and profits wereinterrupted. However, in the fourth quarter, as will be explained in more detail later, both net sales and grossprofit margin in Information processing services and System development sales were significantly higher than
the same period last year.
As Japan's economic activity recovers and demand for IT investment, including digital transformation,
increases, we will continue to aggressively expand our business to our customers and push forward to achieve
our earnings forecast for this fiscal year announced on May 7.
I will now begin my explanation of today's financial results.
First, I would like to explain the contents of today's presentation. First, a company overview, followed by asummary of business results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, and then the focus businesses andtopics in the mid-term management plan initiatives. Finally, I will explain the full-year earnings forecast for
the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 in this order.

Next, we will explain our business by service category. The Company's services are divided into 3 categories:
Information processing services, System development services, and System product sales. This pie chart isbased on annual results for the year ending March 31, 2021 and provides an overall picture of our business.
Of these, Information processing services and System development services account for the majority of sales.
First of all, let me explain about Information processing services.

The Company is focusing on strengthening its stock business and expanding its stable growth base.
Information processing services, such as data centers, cloud services, and commissioned settlement for gas
stations, which is our founding business, are stock businesses. Once you sign up for our service, we will receivea monthly fee.
The graph below shows our stock business sales over the past 10 years. Information processing services, which
are stock businesses, have been growing steadily, and you can see that this is the foundation of our growth.

Let me explain some of the main businesses of Information processing services. First of all, data center services
and cloud services are the businesses that we are currently focusing on. We have been one of the first in theindustry to focus on this business.
See the map of Japan on the left. We have 4 data centers in Yokohama, and the photo shows the center in
Yokohama. In addition, we have partner data centers in Hokkaido, Nagano, and Osaka for mutual backup anddisaster preparedness.
On the right is an example of a service provided in the cloud using our data center. You can see that we offer
a variety of services. Recently, we have been receiving a lot of inquiries about our products due to theincreasing demand for telework under this pandemic.

8Here's one more thing about Information processing services. Commissioned settlement for gas stations is
our founding business, and we have been working on it for the past 50 years. Thanks to the support of ourcustomers, about 30% of the 30,000 gas stations in Japan use our service in some way, and we have the largest
share of the domestic market.
Gas stations mainly use cash, credit card, and sales on account as payment methods, of which we provide
payment services for credit card and accounts receivable.
For example, credit card transactions are processed centrally at our data center. In addition, accounts
receivable data is calculated on behalf of the gas station, and invoices are prepared and sent out at the endof each month.
As you can see in the lower right frame, as an expansion of our service in the commissioned settlementbusiness for gas stations, we have developed a card system designated for public sector since last year that
supports the fueling system for emergency vehicles operated by petroleum associations throughout Japan.
In addition, we are focusing on efforts to expand stock businesses to ensure stable growth, including
commissioned settlement services for the propane gas industry and I-NET Hikari, an optical fiber line service.

Our System development services include a wide range ofsystem design and construction for many customers in the financial, oil and gas, retail and distribution, space,and manufacturing industries, thanks to the trust we have cultivated over the years.
In the financial sector in particular, demand in the field of FinTech has been increasing in recent years, andwe have also been involved in the field of space development since 1977, when they launched the first
Himawari weather satellite, and we have been developing satellites and operating the International Space
Station.

I would like to introduce some examples of our System development services.
As an example of the reduction in operational efficiency costs, a major retailer replaced its dedicated orderingterminal with a tablet and was able to save about JPY20 million per year in operational costs, including
dedicated terminal maintenance costs.
In addition, for customers in the construction industry in the upper right corner of the screen, we havedeveloped an application that displays 3D images in real time on tablets, smartphones, and PCs. This image
includes the exterior design of buildings and exterior wall colors that were not able to be confirmed in catalogs,
and it also supports dynamic display angle changes and scaling view. We contribute to customer satisfaction
by helping customers to have a more concrete image of the condition after the implementation.
In addition, as shown in the lower part of the screen, for a food manufacturer, we built a workflow system forplacing orders with contractors for maintenance and repair of the customer's construction equipment, etcetera, to integrate and visualize operations.
We offer a variety of System development services, including modernization of systems that collect andprovide data to improve data value and operational efficiency through improved operability.

11This is a conceptual diagram of our business model. With the cloud data center in the center of the screen as
our core, we will coordinate various services to meet the needs of a wide variety of customer businesses anddevelop them into stock businesses.
By providing not just one service, but a variety of services, we contribute to improving customer convenience.
From our point of view, this will naturally increase our sales and profits, and also serve as a barrier to entry
for other companies. Our strength lies in our ability to provide a one-stop provider for a wide range of ITrelated services for the businesses of customers in a wide range of industries and business categories.
We differentiate ourselves from our competitors by not only being a system developer, but also by not beinga data center specialist, but by being able to provide system construction, operation, and various cloudservices, as well as printing, sealing, and sending invoices and various forms. We differentiate ourselves fromour competitors by providing services that cover all IT-related processes, from upstream to downstream, witha high level of security.

I would like to continue with an overview of our business results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021.
First is the income statement. The table compares the 2 periods of the current year and the previous year. As
you can see from the figures, sales for the current fiscal year totaled JPY30.016 billion, down 3.5% from thesame period last year. Operating income was JPY2.155 billion, down 13.8% from the same period last year.
Ordinary income was JPY2.279 billion, down 9.9% from the same period last year. Profit attributable to ownersof the parent company was JPY1.494 billion, down 10.6% from the same period last year.
Sales and profits decreased mainly in System development services, which were affected more than expectedby COVID-19.

13This chart shows sales and gross profit by service category and YoY comparisons.
Information processing services posted sales of JPY11.861 billion, up 9.6% from the same period last year.
Gross profit totaled JPY2.803 billion, up 0.7% from the same period last year.
As companies invested in telework and other ways of working, even under the pandemic, we saw a steadyincrease in the use of data center services and other services by our customers, resulting in increased sales
and profits.
Although the gross profit margin declined, this was due to the strategic acquisition of projects with low profit
margins for the purpose of expanding our business.
Next, System development services posted sales of JPY16.936 billion, down 10.5% from the same period lastyear. Gross profit was JPY3.828 billion, down 7.6% from the same period last year.
As a result of the spread of COVID-19, we were affected by the review of system investments, mainly in thetransportation, travel, petroleum, and manufacturing industries. There were also factors such as the progressof contracted development projects and the decline in the utilization rate of engineers under the attendancecontrol.
Sales of System product sales also decreased due to customers' postponement of investment in some of the
product sales associated with each service as a result of the pandemic. Profitability was slightly higher thanthe previous year.

14See the next screen. This table shows the sales and gross profit for the first through third quarters and thefourth quarter by service category. In Information processing services, sales for the first 3 quarters totaled
JPY8.786 billion, up 8.5% from the same period last year. Gross profit was JPY2.05 billion, down 5.2% from thesame period last year. In contrast, sales in the fourth quarter alone totaled JPY3.075 billion, up 13.1% fromthe same period last year. Gross profit totaled JPY0.797 billion, up 19.3% from the same period of the previous
fiscal year, much faster than the pace of the first quarter to the third quarter.
The amount of revenue and profit increased in the fourth quarter due to an expansion in the handling ofcommissioned settlement for gas stations and an increase in existing customer projects in the data center
business.
Next, in System development services, the cumulative total for the first through third quarters was JPY12.253
billion in sales, down 12.7% from the same period last year. Gross profit was JPY2.627 billion, down 14.5%
from the same period last year.
As with Information processing services, sales in the fourth quarter alone totaled JPY4.683 billion, down 4.4%
from the same period last year. Gross profit amounted to JPY1.193 billion, up 12.3% from the same period
last year, and the amount of revenue decline was smaller. In terms of gross profit, there was an increase whencompared to the previous year.
System development services showed an increased recovery trend in the 4Q, mainly due to the contributionof businesses for financial institutions and the oil industry toward the end of the fiscal year.
System product sales also showed a recovery trend, and both sales and gross profit increased in the fourth
quarter compared to the same period last year.

As a reference, we would like to introduce the factors behind the increase/decrease in sales and annual trends
for the services that we are particularly focusing on.

The first is Information processing services. The bar graph on the upper left shows the breakdown of factorsthat caused the increase or decrease in Information processing services for the current fiscal year. Although
there was a decrease in usage in some businesses, such as mailing services, revenue increased due toincreased usage in data centers and cloud services, which are our focus in recent years.
The graph below shows the sales trend of data center and cloud services, which we have been focusing on
the most in the past few years among the Information processing services. Over the past 11 years, the businesshas grown by a factor of 5 as the market has grown. We plan to continue to focus on this business as a growth
driver.

The next page is the System development service. The graph above shows a comparison of Systemdevelopment services between the previous year and the current year. The main reason for the decrease insales for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 is as explained earlier, but before the spread of COVID-19, thetrend of demand for software investment to improve business efficiency and strengthen corporate
competitiveness, including responses to labor shortages, was stable and high, and we were able to maintainsteady sales.
In the future, we will steadily respond to System development projects that have been suspended or
postponed and aim to return to our previous growth path.

Next is the balance sheet. The balance of current assets was JPY10.561 billion, a decrease of JPY0.932 billion
from the end of the previous fiscal year. The balance of non-current assets was JPY21.494 billion, an increaseof JPY1.534 billion from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to a JPY0.672 billion increasein non-current assets associated with the expansion of data center facilities. In addition, there was an increaseof JPY0.637 billion in investment securities due to a review of investments and valuation.
The balance of current liabilities was JPY8.625 billion, an increase of JPY0.217 billion from the end of theprevious fiscal year. The balance of non-current liabilities was JPY7.218 billion, an increase of JPY1.260 billion
from the end of the previous fiscal year.

Next, I would like to explain the trend in capital investment.
Capital investment in data centers for the fiscal year ending March 2021 is estimated at JPY2.679 billion, an
increase of approximately JPY0.360 billion over the same period last year. As our customers use our data
centers, we have been continuously enhancing our data center facilities, and our data center and cloudrelated sales have been increasing. We are planning for another increase this fiscal year, but we believe wehave enough potential to raise the number even higher than planned.
The peak of the total investment will remain as of the investment done in fiscal year ending March 2020 for
the time being. Depreciation and amortization expenses are expected to remain flat for the time being.
We will continue to respond flexibly to customer needs and expand the scale of our business by growing ourcore businesses of data center services and cloud services, while balancing expenditures for the expansion ofdata center facilities with sales.

Next is the statement of cash flows.
Net cash provided by operating activities totaled JPY3.419 billion. This was mainly due to profits before
income taxes of JPY2.195 billion and an increase of JPY1.744 billion in retained earnings from depreciationand income taxes paid of JPY0.564 billion.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled JPY2.929 billion. Although there was JPY0.352 billion in income
from the sale of investment securities, this was offset by JPY2.306 billion in expenditures for the expansion ofdata center facilities to accommodate orders for large-scale projects from existing customers.
As a result of financing activities, net cash provided by financing activities amounted to JPY0.454 billion.
Interest-bearing debt increased by JPY1.446 billion, while dividend payments of JPY0.692 billion were themain factor for the decrease.
As a result of the above, the balance of cash and cash equivalents at the end of the fiscal year increased by
JPY0.944 billion compared to the previous fiscal year to JPY4.027 billion.

Next, I would like to explain the progress of our medium-term management plan, which we started in FY2019.
The results of the first year were a great start to our progress, with both net sales and operating income
achieving the plan. This was mainly due to the strong performance of data centers and cloud services, as wellas the robust performance of the System development field due to rising demand for IT capital investment.
In the second year, the expansion of COVID-19 had a significant impact on the sales and profits of the Systemdevelopment service. On January 29, 2021, we announced a revision to our full-year earnings forecast.
However, thanks to the success of our Information processing services more than expected, including ourstrong data center services, and our efforts to win system development projects, sales exceeded the revised
results and operating income also increased by about 7.8%.
For the third year, we have revised our initial forecast due to the impact of the spread of COVID-19 that
occurred in the second year.
While the direction of the current medium-term management plan remains unchanged and each measure
will continue to be implemented in the final year of the plan, we have closely examined the impact of thepandemic, which was not anticipated when the medium-term management plan was formulated.
We will aim to return to our traditional growth path by strengthening our ability to engage with customers,
expanding contact points with them, progressing with transactions, and steadily responding to systemdevelopment projects that were suspended or postponed in the previous fiscal year, with a focus on data
center services and cloud services, which continue to perform well.

The following is an explanation of the key businesses and topics that will be addressed in the mid-term
management plan.
In October 2020, we began offering a new CO2 temperature and humidity sensor, a diagnostic service fordensely populated spaces using this sensor, Dream Data Sensing, and i-visible CO2, which will solve theproblems that are arising under the pandemic. The i-visible CO2 is a small IoT device that measures CO2,
temperature, and humidity, and enables constant monitoring of CO2 concentration in densely populated
spaces, such as companies, commercial facilities, schools, and cram schools, as well as the ability to check themeasured values with a smartphone or PC.
Each data collected by IoT devices is sent via the Internet to I-NET's data center, where it is immediately
analyzed by environmental analysis and cloud applications. If it is determined that ventilation is necessary
based on the forecasted increase or decrease in CO2, we will alert customers via e-mail or signage in advanceto provide safety and security.
As a data center operator, this service is very important for us, as it is part of our platform strategy to move
all data to the data center and focus on it.
In the future, we plan to expand the lineup of the Dream Data Sensing series to include measurement ofparticles such as pollen, dust, and yellow sand, as well as smokey smell from a cigarette and ammonia odors,in addition to CO2.

Remote Desktop Service, VIDAAS, the red logo in theupper left corner of the screen, allows customers to use their workplace PC anywhere. The green logo in theupper right corner of the screen is ChatLuck, which allows you to communicate with people inside and outsideof your company via chat instead of email to improve efficiency in a highly secure environment.
In addition, we provide tools that cannot be written down for the realization of telework, such as Cloudstor,
a secure file sharing tool.
We have also conducted online seminars, not only in-house but also in collaboration with our partners,
focusing on the reform of work styles, digital transformation, and corporate security measures. We willcontinue to hold online seminars that catch customer needs in advance and are in high demand in order tostrengthen our sales force.

23This is the space business that we have been focusing on for over 40 years.
Trends in the space business have been implemented by national space agencies with huge budgets. In recent
years, however, private companies have taken up the challenge one after another and are working on it asspace startups. This can be attributed to the miniaturization and lower cost of the satellite field due totechnological advances, as well as the influence of the United States, where there are many start-ups.
We have been involved in space buisness since 1977, when the first Himawari satellite was launched, and wehave knowledge in this field based on more than 40 years of technology and experience.
In recent years, we have received requests for cooperation in satellite development from many space startup companies. In particular, we will strengthen our efforts in the promising satellite business.
For example, in the satellite data application business, the astronomy, land, and sea observation nano-satellite
project are currently being tested as the theme of JAXA's Innovative Satellite Technology Demonstration No.
3, through industry-academia collaboration led by the Tokyo Institute of Technology. We will continue tostrengthen our collaboration with the participating startups to contribute to solving issues in fishing,
agriculture, and the environment.
In addition, in the antenna operation business, we will make it a business to efficiently receive radio waves
from multiple satellites, increase the operation rate, and return the data to the satellite operators.

I would like to explain 2 topics of our commissioned settlement service for gas stations, which we are focusing
on as one of the expansions of our stock business.
The first is about the card system designated for public sector that we are developing for petroleum
associations throughout Japan. We have created a system that allows Public organizations, such as prefectural
police headquarters and prefectural organizations in each prefecture, to contract with local gas stations inbulk, creating a service that allows emergency vehicles to freely refuel.
The system also improves operational efficiency by reducing the amount of time and effort required to create
hand-written slips, which used to occur at gas stations. This will also allow us to refuel ahead of the generalpublic in case of emergencies and disasters, which will contribute to saving lives and early response todisasters.
Second, we would like to introduce our services for the propane gas business.
We are using a similar system in other companies' clouds nationwide, but we operate our LPG sales
management system in our own data center. We also provide one-stop services from development tooperation to BPO to call centers. For example, it is possible to send invoices to users not only on paper but
also via web invoices, providing customers with a finely tuned service that is one step ahead of thecompetition, and we will work to further expand sales in the future.

Next, we will explain our business forecast for the current fiscal year.
We disclosed our earnings forecast for the current fiscal year in the earnings report released on May 7, 2021.
Here is a table comparing the results of the previous fiscal year with the forecast for the current fiscal year.
As we explained earlier, we have revised the net sales and operating income figures set in the initial mediumterm management plan.
Net sales broke a record high by surpassing JPY32.5 billion. In terms of profits, we plan to achieve a record
high gross profit. In terms of growth rates alone, net sales are expected to increase by 8.3%, operating income
by 8.1%, ordinary income by 2.2%, and profit attributable to owners of the parent company by 7%. Earnings
per share is planned to be JPY100.2.

We plan to increase sales and profits in all service categories, which are Information processing services,
System development services, and System product sales. We hope you will see the respective figures later.

Lastly, I would like to explain our dividend policy.
The Company's basic policy is to pay stable dividends. For the year ended March 31, 2019, we increased theannual dividend by 3 years to JPY43 per share. And since the previous fiscal year also marked the 50th
anniversary of our founding in April this year, we increased the dividend by JPY3, including JPY2 as acommemorative dividend, to JPY46 for the full year. For the current fiscal year, we plan to increase thedividend by another JPY1 to JPY47. This will be the 10th consecutive year of dividend increases.
For reference, the line graph above shows the dividend payout ratio. The dividend payout ratio has generally
been in the low 40% range, but in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, it will be in the 49% range, includingcommemorative dividends. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, we expect to achieve approximately
47%.
The following pages are appendixes, which we hope you will look at later.
Last but not least, the entire Group will work together to achieve the planned figures that I have explained
today, and we will make every effort to earn the trust of our stakeholders. We look forward to your continued
support.
That's all I have to say. Thank you very much for your kind attention.

Question & Answer

Moderator: Thank you very much, President Sakai. We will now move on to questions and answers. I will readout your questions, and one of us will answer your question. We have received a question.
What are your thoughts on the market classification review? Are you aiming for the prime market? Pleaseanswer.
Sakai: Thank you for your question. Executive Officer Uchida will answer your question.
Uchida: Let me answer from Uchida. As for the market classification of the First Section of the Tokyo Stock
Exchange, we are thinking of applying for the Prime Market from April next year. For this, we plan to apply forthe prime market here because of the credibility and brand power of the prime market, as well as the benefitsof maintaining the liquidity of the stock and the [Inaudible] of adopting TOPIX and its positive effect in hiring
new graduates. We will be evaluated by the standard as of June 30, so we expect to meet all of the standards
by [Inaudible].
In addition, I believe that we will be required to comply with the high-level Corporate Governance Code, andwe will respond appropriately and operate without any problems. That's all.
Moderator: Thank you very much. Do you have any other questions? I received a question.
Please tell us about the progress of the medium-term management plan. Please respond to this question.
Sakai: Wanibuchi, who is in charge of business management, will answer your question.
Wanibuchi: I would like to explain the progress of the mid-term management plan.
There is a very strong demand for data center services and cloud services, which are essential in terms ofcorporate digital transformation efforts. As explained earlier by President Sakai, we will maintain the strong
performance of the Information processing service as a whole, which is a stock business.
However, due to the impact of COVID-19, projects in the System development service were postponed orcancelled, or there was a decrease in the handling of mailing services in the Information processing service.
As a result, the figures for the current fiscal year, the second year of the mid-term management plan, werelower than the figures for both sales and operating income. This is also as we mentioned earlier.
In response to this, this fiscal year will be the final year of the medium-term management plan, and although
the direction of the current medium-term management plan remains unchanged and each measure willcontinue to be implemented in the final year, considering the impact of the pandemic [Inaudible], which was
not anticipated when the medium-term management plan was formulated, the medium-term management
plan has been revised. This is as explained by President Sakai earlier. We have revised our net sales downward
from JPY33.2 billion to JPY32.5 billion, and we have revised our operating income target from JPY2.73 billion
to JPY2.33 billion.
Sakai: We have not changed our way of thinking, and we will continue to actively support our customers'
digital transformation. We will continue to improve our products and services in the areas of [Inaudible] big
data, AI, FinTech, et cetera, and also promote our existing cloud services. That is all.
