Global Cast Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nakamura-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture; President & CEO: Hideyuki Kawaguchi; hereinafter "our company") will undergo a management integration with Aplix Corporation (Listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Growth Market, Securities Code: 3727; Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Satoko Kurabayashi; hereinafter "Aplix"). The integration will take the form of a share exchange, making our company a wholly-owned subsidiary, and will launch as a new corporate group starting April 1, 2026.
Through this integration, we will fuse our company's sales infrastructure and assets with Aplix's technological foundation in the telecommunications, IoT, and digital domains, simultaneously realizing an accelerated expansion of business scale and the sophistication of our revenue structure.
1. Strategic Significance of the Integration
Our company has been expanding sales support across various industries, utilizing our nationwide sales network and sales resources as a foundation.
On the other hand, Aplix possesses technological foundations in the fintech domain such as digital currency, in addition to MVNO/MVNE businesses, IoT communications, and system development, combining stable revenue sources with high developmental capabilities.
The two companies have a strong complementary relationship:
- "Sales Power (our company)" x "Technology/Products (Aplix)"
- "Customer Touchpoints" x "Telecom/IoT/Fintech Infrastructure"
This integration realizes a strategic union that strengthens both sales growth potential and the revenue foundation.
2. Synergies and Growth Drivers
Through this integration, we will establish the following specific growth drivers:
1) Acceleration of Sales Growth
- Expanding the deployment of digital services such as telecom and IoT by leveraging our nationwide sales network.
- Maximizing LTV (Life Time Value) through cross-selling to the existing customer base.
2) Sophistication of Revenue Structure
- Improving revenue stability by accumulating recurring revenues.
- Strengthening cash flow through an optimal combination of one-shot revenues and stock-type revenues.
- Enhancing resilience to external environmental changes by multi-layering revenue sources.
3) High Value-Added Services and Establishment of Competitive Advantage
- Developing services that fuse sales, data, and telecommunications.
- Improving operational efficiency and added value by promoting DX in the BPO domain and utilizing AI technology.
- Creating new services through collaboration in the telecom, data, and payment domains.
Through these initiatives, we will achieve business expansion accompanied by quality growth, rather than just merely scaling up.
3. Future Outlook (Discontinuous Growth via Holding Company Structure)
With this integration as a starting point, we are considering transitioning to a holding company structure in the future.
This will enable:
- Optimal capital allocation and rapid decision-making for each business.
- Promotion of agile growth strategies while maintaining the independence of each business.
- Expansion of the business portfolio through M&A and alliances.
We aim to build a multi-layered and sustainable growth foundation that does not rely on the growth of a single business.
The holding company structure will function as a platform that not only strengthens existing businesses but also accelerates the creation of new businesses and collaboration with external partners, contributing to the overall group.
