Loglass Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director and CEO: Tomoya Fukawa) announces the release of a video titled 'Learning from I-ne of "BOTANIST" | Overcoming the Wall of Rapid Growth and Increasing Profits with "Management Control DX"' on the business video media 'PIVOT' program '&EVENT'.

In this program, Mr. Yoshinori Hara, Director, Executive Officer, and CFO of I-ne Co., Ltd., known for hair care brands like 'BOTANIST' and 'YOLU', is welcomed as a guest for a discussion on the theme of 'Management Control DX'. How did a rapidly growing company break through the 'profit wall' they faced and improve their operating profit margin by approximately 3 times compared to when they went public? The program deeply explores the background behind this, including the construction of an 'FP&A organization' and the sophistication of decision-making centered on the cloud management control system 'Loglass Management Control', providing useful content for CFOs and corporate planning personnel.

Highlights of the Program 1. An FP&A Organization that Overcomes the 'Profit Wall' Faced by Growing Companies How did I-ne, which had a profit margin in the 3% range at the time of going public, break through the profit wall caused by partial optimization? We approach the process of building 'Division FP&A' that works alongside business divisions, achieving a 3x operating profit margin.

2. Man-Hour Reduction and Scenario Analysis using 'Loglass Management Control' Reduced man-hours for budget formulation and reporting by over 300 hours annually. We explain the practical system utilization that simultaneously improved the accuracy of budget-to-actual simulations and produced results such as 'halving the logistics cost ratio'.

3. Changing Roles Required of CFOs and Corporate Planning in the AI Era Both assert that data aggregation should be left to systems, and humans should focus on 'dialogue with the frontline' and 'investment decisions'. It presents the importance of hybrid corporate planning through 'people/organization x system'.
