Rakus Obtains 'SOC1 Type2 Report' for 'Rakuraku Seisan' and 'Rakuraku Hanbai'

On March 31, 2026, Rakus Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Takanori Nakamura) received the 'SOC1 Type2 Report' for its 'Rakuraku Seisan' and 'Rakuraku Hanbai' services, evaluating the design and operational effectiveness of its internal controls as a service provider. The SOC1 Type2 report is a document where an independent auditor evaluates and guarantees that the internal controls related to financial reporting of an outsourcing provider are appropriately maintained and effectively operated over a certain period. By providing this report, IPO-preparing companies and listed companies using 'Rakuraku Seisan' and 'Rakuraku Hanbai' can simplify parts of their internal and external audit evaluation tasks. Additionally, it serves as supporting evidence for internal control audits (including IT general controls) based on the Japanese SOX Act (J-SOX), proving that service-side controls are functioning continuously. Overview: Start date: March 31, 2026; Audit period: July 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025. Customers wishing to receive the report should contact their sales representative. Preparations are also underway for 'Rakuraku Meisai' to issue a SOC1 Type2 report in 2027.
