Leifras Acquires Four Child Development Facilities in Miyagi, Japan

Leifras announced that the company entered into a business transfer agreement with Well Resources to acquire four child development support and after-school daycare facilities in Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. Well Resources is an operator of child welfare facilities and elderly care facilities in Japan. The acquisition is an initiative to accelerate profit growth in Leifras' social business segment and establish a position in the Northeastern Japan market via focused expansion in the region. The transaction is expected to close on May 1. The four facilities to be acquired maintain occupancy rates of nearly 100% and are supported by a team of 23 professionals holding national licenses, such as physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists. Leifras' social business segment recorded revenue growth of 36.4% year-on-year in the third quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The four target facilities maintain occupancy rates of nearly 100% and have built strong reputations among local communities and counseling support agencies. Given that these assets are fully operational and do not rely on paid advertising, the company expects immediate top-line and bottom-line contributions following closing, without ramp-up costs typically associated with de novo openings.
