Fujisan Magazine Service Co.,Ltd. (3138) Stock Price

Fujisan Magazine Service operates primarily through magazine subscription services. Founded in 2002, the company launched its website "Fujisan.co.jp" the same year. Through this platform, the company offers both print and digital magazines tailored to diverse lifestyles and interests.

The company operates in a single business segment: magazine sales support services. Specifically, it provides publishers with end-to-end support ranging from order intake to delivery. This enables publishers to efficiently acquire subscribers and achieve stable recurring subscription revenue.

Fujisan Magazine Service serves both individual and corporate customers. Through its "Fujisan Corporate Premium Service," the company enhances convenience for corporate clients such as beauty salons and libraries that purchase magazines in bulk. This strategy expands the company's sales channels from B2C to B2B.

The company also offers the "Fujisan Reader" app and operates a free digital magazine service called "Tada-yomi" (free reading). This service promotes user registration and expands the subscriber base. Subscribers can access a "bundle service" that provides both print and digital versions.

For publishers, the company provides "Fujisan VCS (Value Chain Support)" services. This allows publishers to outsource customer management and delivery operations related to subscriptions, enabling efficient use of management resources. Through distribution services and full-service solutions, the company supports publishers' sales activities.

Fujisan Magazine Service has established itself as a distribution platform in the publishing industry through magazine subscriptions. The company uses "Fujisan.co.jp" to connect readers and publishers, contributing to the development of publishing culture. In particular, it aims to increase subscribers by offering benefits and discounts to promote subscription adoption.

In its medium-term management plan, the company is advancing a "Special Partner Strategy" that provides publishers with stable revenue opportunities and reduces operational burden through increased subscription numbers. This aims to popularize subscription-based reading as a new consumption model and revitalize the industry overall. Additionally, the company provides publishers with new revenue sources through advertising revenue and its EC platform "MagaCommerce."

Furthermore, Fujisan Magazine Service is entering the EdTech business starting July 2024 to reduce dependence on the magazine publishing market. This strategy opens new markets and diversifies the business. The company is also building revenue streams in the digital media sector and aims to establish itself as a big data operator.

The company prioritizes maintaining profitability in magazine sales support services and expanding offerings, while improving subscriber convenience and strengthening digital magazine provision. It also seeks to enhance corporate value through increased brand awareness, ensuring system stability, and strengthening information management frameworks. Through these initiatives, Fujisan Magazine Service pursues sustainable growth.
