Scaling new heights: A landmark year of Agentic AI–led growth acceleration

Appier Group Inc. (TSE: 4180), hereafter referred to as “Appier,” today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and issued guidance for FY26. The company achieved record revenue of JPY 43.7 billion, a 28% YoY increase (JPY 45.0 billion, up 32% YoY on an FX-neutral basis). This stellar performance was fueled by dual growth engines: core E-commerce grew 49% YoY, and Other Internet Services surged 59% YoY, led by the Travel sector. Since FY19, Appier has delivered a sixfold surge in total revenue, a record performance anchored by consistent expansion in incremental revenue.

Profitability surged to a record high, with operating income growing 50% YoY to JPY 3.0 billion, representing a 6.8% operating margin (JPY 3.8 billion with an 8.5% margin on an FX-neutral basis). Gross profit outpaced revenue growth, reaching a historical high of JPY 23.5 billion, up 32% YoY. Gross margin climbed to 53.8% (53.9% FX-neutral), bolstered by increased revenue scale, technological differentiation, and a high-margin product mix. This upward trajectory underscores Appier’s ability to scale customer value while driving operational leverage.

Balanced regional expansion and deepening vertical penetration drive quality growth

In FY25, all key regions delivered strong growth. Northeast Asia (68%) and the U.S. & EMEA (19%) both achieved 36% YoY growth (FX-neutral). NEA was supported by balanced expansion in E-commerce and continued vertical diversification, while the U.S. & EMEA benefited from solid momentum across E-commerce and Other Internet Services. Together, this regional strength and deeper vertical penetration reflect the effective scaling of Agentic AI-first strategy, driving sustained, high-quality, and resilient growth.

Revenue growth remains balanced, with 56% of incremental revenue driven by ROI-led upsells to existing E-commerce customers and 44% fueled by new customers, primarily from Online Travel. By leveraging Agentic AI to secure large enterprise catalysts, Appier delivered 13% YoY growth in both its customer base and FX-neutral ARPC. This strategic focus—coupled with disciplined OPEX—drove operating leverage. Furthermore, the operational productivity surged, driven by a 23% YoY growth in gross profit per headcount.

Entering FY26 with strong profitable momentum

Appier projects revenue growth to reaccelerate in FY26, with organic revenue expected to outpace total growth, driven by our dual-vertical growth engines. Forecasting revenue to reach JPY 54 billion, up 24% YoY and gross profit to hit JPY 29.4 billion, up 25% YoY, with a 54.5% margin. This optimistic outlook is anchored by a Q4 FY25 inflection point, where revenue growth surged to 34%, validating Appier’s strategic focus on key accounts and high-growth verticals. Operating income is projected to rise 45% YoY to JPY 4.3 billion, while EBITDA is expected to grow 37% YoY to JPY 9.4 billion—representing a 17.4% margin fueled by disciplined investment and operational leverage.

“2025 marks a defining year for Appier as we evolve into a global leader in Agentic AI as a Service.

HONG KONG SAR AND SINGAPORE AND MAINLAND CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 13 February 2026 – WRISE Group, one of Asia’s fastest-growing wealth management firms, today announced the strategic expansion of its regional footprint with the opening of a new client service centre* in Taipei, Taiwan. This expansion reinforces the Group’s commitment to providing localised expertise while supporting the complex, long-term wealth needs of clients across the region.

The establishment of a physical presence in Taipei underscores WRISE’s dedication to the Taiwan market and its role within the broader family wealth landscape. With the combined assets of Taiwanese ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWIs) expected to reach US$1.9 trillion by 2029, the new centre is strategically positioned to address the increasing demand for sophisticated, multi-jurisdictional wealth management and intergenerational planning.

In addition to client advisory and consultation services, WRISE will introduce family wealth–related educational and engagement initiatives in Taipei. These programmes will focus on sharing long-term perspectives and encouraging next-generation dialogue, offering a dedicated space for families to explore the foundations of lasting wealth stewardship.

The centre will be led by Andrew Wang, Managing Director of WRISE Taipei. With previous experience as chairman of several publicly listed companies, including Jhen Vei Electronic, United Fiber Optic Communication, and Jye Tai Precision Industrial, as well as a board director of multiple listed entities, he brings extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions, capital investments, venture capital and public listings. Andrew also brings a strong strategic and governance-oriented perspective to supporting long-term engagement with family-owned businesses.

“As Taiwan transitions into an increasingly sophisticated wealth hub, we are seeing a significant shift towards institutionalised family governance and global asset diversification among UHNW families,” said Andrew Wang, Managing Director, WRISE Taipei. “The establishment of our client advisory centre in Taipei allows WRISE to maintain closer engagement and provide the coordinated, on-the-ground support necessary for families looking to secure their legacies across the region.”

The new centre’s opening was officially marked by a ceremony in Taipei’s Xinyi District, attended by key industry partners, long-standing clients, and WRISE senior leadership.

Prazen Develops Ultra-Thin, High-Performance Optical Module, Achieves 5 mm thickness, 50° field of view, and 50% optical efficiency

SEOUL, South Korea, Feb. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Prazen, a specialist in AR optical modules, announced the successful development of a next-generation ultra-thin optical module achieving 5 mm thickness, 50° field of view (FoV), and 50% optical efficiency simultaneously.

This performance level exceeds that of currently released or publicly disclosed AR glasses from global technology companies, positioning Prazen as a company with both strong technological competitiveness and high commercialization potential.

Prazen’s new optical module delivers:

  • Thickness: 5 mm
  • Field of View: 50°
  • Optical Efficiency: 50%

This represents a significant improvement, with optical thickness reduced to less than half while simultaneously expanding the viewing angle and increasing optical efficiency.

Prazen’s technology addresses one of the most difficult challenges in AR optics: achieving thin form factor, wide field of view, and high optical efficiency at the same time.

The company applied its proprietary high-density optical design and wave-optics-based architecture to minimize light loss compared to conventional waveguide approaches, dramatically reducing module thickness.

The optical module is compatible with most micro-display technologies, including micro OLED and LCOS, and is suitable not only for consumer AR glasses but also for industrial smart glasses, medical and manufacturing AR systems, and automotive HUDs.

A Prazen spokesperson stated, global companies have struggled to solve the combined problem of optical thickness and efficiency. Our proprietary optical structure achieves both, which is a major technical milestone.

Prazen plans to establish a pilot mass production line within the year and to expand its B2B optical module supply business targeting device makers.

Founded by former Samsung Electronics engineers, Prazen specializes in wave-optics-based ultra-thin optical structures, micro-display integration technologies, and high-efficiency optical design.

This extensive scope is poised to significantly advance global ophthalmology.

Hong Kong’s First Interdisciplinary Myopia Control Expert Research Group Formed to Propose Comprehensive Control Strategies to the Government

During the congress, four major ophthalmic organizations in Hong Kong – Hong Kong Ophthalmological Society, the College of Ophthalmologists of Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Association of Private Eye Surgeons, and the Hong Kong Paediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus Society – jointly established Hong Kong’s first Interdisciplinary Myopia Control Expert Task Force. This group will pioneer the integration of academic research, clinical services, and public education to formulate myopia control strategies for Hong Kong and propose comprehensive recommendations to the HKSAR government. Furthermore, it will promote more holistic, cost-effective, and long-term myopia management solutions by incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as AI, wearable devices, and novel therapies for the public’s benefit.

Special Chinese Sessions Accelerated Cross-border and Global Collaboration

To enhance regional cooperation and academic exchange, this year’s APAO Congress, in addition to its regular English lectures, has specially introduced Chinese-language sessions. The organisers have invited over a hundred authoritative ophthalmology experts from Chinese Mainland to Hong Kong for in-depth exchanges and participation in discussions in Chinese, aiming to accelerate collaboration between the ophthalmology communities of Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong, and indeed, the world. The congress also attracted 3,000 Chinese Mainland experts and scholars, fully demonstrating the close ties as well as continuous cross-border and international cooperation.

Among these, a public health luncheon themed “China’s Myopia Prevention and Control Model” was held. Chinese Mainland experts elaborated to their international ophthalmic peers on how China has successfully established a far-reaching comprehensive myopia prevention and control system through robust public health management, solid scientific research, cutting-edge technologies, and effective policies. It offered valuable experiences for global myopia control efforts.

Cross-border Societies Sign Memorandum of Understanding

To further strengthen collaboration between Chinese Mainland and Hong Kong in the field of ophthalmology, Chinese Ophthalmological Society, the Hong Kong Ophthalmological Society, and the College of Ophthalmologists of Hong Kong signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) during this congress. The MOU aims to jointly deepen and advance the long-term development of ophthalmology in both regions, charting a new chapter for the field.

Concurrently, the Global Ophthalmic AI and Technology Society (GOATS) and the Asia-Pacific Stem Cell and Gene Therapy Society (APSOCGT) were officially established during the conference. The formation of these two new societies will provide substantial impetus for the advancement of ophthalmic artificial intelligence, technological innovation, stem cell and gene therapy, facilitating their translation from foundational research to clinical application across the Asia-Pacific region and globally.

APAO Congress Held for the Fifth Time in Hong Kong Solidifying the City’s Status as an International Ophthalmic Hub

Professor Jason Yam Cheuk-sing, President of APAO 2026 Congress & President of The Hong Kong Ophthalmological Society concluded, “The APAO Congress being held in Hong Kong for the fifth time has underscored the city’s internationally recognised excellence in ophthalmology. It not only enhances our clinical capabilities in managing complex cases but also allows this city to showcase its cutting-edge ophthalmic medical technology and research prowess to the world. ”
