Japan’s earnings information
A language gap keeps global investors out
Japan has roughly 4,000 listed companies, and nearly all of them disclose their earnings primarily in Japanese. English-language materials do exist — but they are concentrated among the largest companies, and even then the format and depth vary widely from one company to the next. For investors outside Japan, following any company beyond the familiar large caps means facing a language barrier, scattered sources, and documents that take real time to work through.
Challenge 01
Most earnings materials are Japanese-only
Full-year results presentations and briefings are rarely published in English
Challenge 02
English coverage stops at the large caps
Existing English-language services focus on the biggest names, leaving most of the market uncovered
Challenge 03
Reading the source documents takes time
Results decks run dozens of pages; following many companies in a foreign market is impractical without summaries
What Japan Equity Coverage does differently
Article creation
Before publishing
Source-faithful by design
Every article is based solely on the company’s official IR materials. Figures are transcribed exactly as reported — no rounding, no added precision, no outside estimates.
Article creation
During writing
A clear source hierarchy
We prioritize each company’s English results presentation. Where none exists, we work from the Japanese presentation or the official financial results release — and each article states which source it is based on.
Article creation
After publishing
Every listed company, not just the large caps
Our goal is full-year earnings coverage of the entire Japanese market — Prime, Standard and Growth — so you can research beyond the companies that already have English coverage.
Editorial policy
100% source-based
Articles contain only facts and figures from the cited IR materials. If something cannot be confirmed from the source, we say so.
No recommendations
We summarize what companies reported. We do not rate stocks, set targets, or give investment advice.
Clear disclaimers
Every article carries a disclaimer at top and bottom. Investment decisions are the reader’s own responsibility.
