NEW ART Group - Enhancing the Potential of Each Business

Our group, consisting of the holding company NEW ART HOLDINGS Co., Ltd. and domestic and international operating companies, operates diversely across various fields including bridal jewelry, food, health & beauty, art auctions, and resort development. For the fiscal year ending March 2025, we achieved record-high performance with net sales of 27,644 million yen (31.0% increase from the previous year) and operating profit of 3,890 million yen (35.8% increase).

The NEW ART Group promotes the "Strategic Alliance" with the aim of enhancing synergy effects among each business and achieving further development. This initiative addresses the many challenges that business leaders face in continuing their operations, such as succession issues and economic fluctuations, by pursuing business expansion as a group through business partnerships and capital alliances among successful business leaders.

As an example of this strategic partnership, Hong Kong-based food company Wah Full Group Limited joined our group and contributed significantly to our improved performance in the fiscal year ending March 2025. We will continue to pursue further growth through such strategic alliances.

"Benefiting People" is What Keeps Companies Growing

What I always value in business is whether the services and products we provide benefit people and contribute to society. While management techniques are important, one cannot be called a true entrepreneur without being able to think about what can be done for customers.

The same applies to our individual investors. The funds you invest in our company are precious assets you have earned through your time and hard work. We must never waste them. With the desire to be an indispensable company as a member of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, we are strengthening returns to shareholders through continuous dividend increases.

However, what I want to convey to our shareholders is that you should look beyond immediate numbers and determine whether the company is engaged in work that benefits society. Companies that focus on benefiting people and society are companies that continue to grow for the long term.

"Better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of an ox" - this is the belief I have held since founding the company. In my twenties, I dreamed of becoming the world's greatest gallery owner, and for 50 years since then, I have supported many artists both domestically and internationally. Thirty years ago, when bridal jewelry specialty stores were still uncommon, I established a diamond company specializing in bridal jewelry and have led the industry ever since.

Looking ahead, we will continue our unique challenges that capture the needs of the times, not only expanding further in Asian markets but also considering expansion into the New York market, and we will continue to develop as a one-of-a-kind corporate group that imitates no one.
