Turning Demographic Change into Growth
Strengthening a Durable Earnings Base Centered on Our Rental Business
Japan is experiencing one of the fastest demographic shifts in the world, and the markets for medical services, nursing care, and daily living support are expected to expand steadily over the medium to long term. The France Bed Group views this structural change not as a challenge, but as a significant opportunity for sustainable growth, and we are strengthening our business foundations accordingly.
Our greatest strength lies in our nationwide rental and service network, which provides stable and recurring revenue. This business model—built on decades of on site expertise, a deep understanding of public nursing-care systems, and strong customer relationships—represents a competitive advantage that is hard to replicate.
In the Medical Services business, we will continue to capture growing demand by enhancing service quality, expanding our network, and improving productivity. These initiatives will further reinforce the stability and growth potential of our recurring revenue base.
The Home Furnishing & Health business continues to face a challenging market environment. However, we are steadily implementing structural reforms to restore profitability and rebuild a solid foundation for future growth. We remain firmly committed to these necessary changes, viewing them as essential steps toward long-term value creation.
Looking ahead, we will continue to strengthen a resilient and sustainable earnings structure with the rental business at its core. By delivering products and services that remain essential to society, we aim to consistently enhance corporate value.
