One-stop data center business Mirait One
On November 13, Mirait One announced its financial results for April to September 2024. Operating revenue was 249.9 billion yen (up 33.3 billion yen from the previous quarter), and operating profit was 4.7 billion yen (up 2.3 billion yen from the previous quarter). Both revenue and profit increased.
Operating revenue increased significantly from the environmental and social innovation business to 85.1 billion yen (up 31.7 billion yen from the previous quarter). This was due to the contribution of Kokusai Kogyo, which joined the group in December last year.
The ICT solutions business was 62.2 billion yen (up 600 million yen from the previous quarter). The data center and cloud areas grew significantly.
Meanwhile, the NTT business was 85.4 billion yen (up 5.3 billion yen from the previous quarter). NTT East and West’s optical broadband services remained strong, and NTT docomo’s investment in improving 5G communication quality increased significantly, resulting in an increase in revenue.
The multi-carrier business was 17.2 billion yen (down 4.3 billion yen from the previous quarter). Orders have been declining since the previous year. Revenues from both 5G base station construction and CATV-related businesses fell.
Mirait One is focusing on the data center business as a key initiative.
Its current core focus is construction within data centers.
It is conducting cable construction work in 13 Asian countries, including Japan, and expects sales of 30 billion yen this fiscal year. In electrical construction work, it is expanding its UPS (uninterruptible power supply equipment) construction. It is also developing container-type data centers that provide GPU resources.
In the service field, it is centered on its own data center in Osaka. It is also promoting so-called “DC in DC,” which provides data center services within other companies’ data centers.
In the future, it hopes to provide a one-stop service for data center construction, communications, electricity, air conditioning, etc. President Nakayama Toshiki said, “Our group includes Seibu Construction, a general contractor; Mirait One, which specializes in building communications and electrical facilities; and Nichisetsu, which specializes in air conditioning. We will leverage our strengths to fully engage in the data center business with a full-value approach.”
The company also plans to expand its operations and management services for data centers.
The company has set a goal of growing sales by 50% from the current level to 60 billion yen by fiscal 2026.
