PicoCELA Half-Year Results: Is Revenue Growth Matching a Growing Loss?

First-half results for the fiscal year were published on September 23, 2026. Revenue was 367.4 million yen, up 46% from the first half of 2025, and trailing twelve-month revenue was about 659.5 million yen, or roughly $4.18 million.

The half-year net loss of 2.59 billion yen was 2.28 billion yen wider than a year earlier. Loss per share was 1,046 yen against 401 yen. Across the trailing twelve months the loss was about 2.90 billion yen, or roughly $18.4 million.

As a comparison point, the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 showed revenue up 40% to $5.5 million, a net loss of $3.4 million, and year-end cash of $3.2 million.

Capital Raising and Share Count: How Far Has Dilution Reshaped the Picture?

PicoCELA went public on the Nasdaq Capital Market in January 2025 after selling 1.75 million American depositary shares at $4.00 each for $7.0 million. A May 2025 offering of 6.1 million depositary shares at $0.30 raised $1.83 million, and restricted-share placements with Japanese investors followed, including about 100 million yen in August 2025 and about $1.40 million in April 2025.

An assessment from May 2026 observed that shares outstanding had grown more than sixfold over the prior year and put cash runway at under one year, based on free cash flow of about negative 590 million yen. Nasdaq also sent a minimum bid price notice in August 2025, with a compliance period that ran to February 23, 2026.

Reported market capitalization was about $64.2 million when shares were quoted at $6.68 on October 1, 2026. The share price has swung sharply in both directions over the past year, so the ADS count behind that figure matters for any per-share comparison.

PicoCELA Leadership Changes: Who Is Running the Company Now?

Effective July 1, 2026, the company's chief technology officer and director stepped down, and the former executive became chairman, chief technology officer and representative director. A new president and chief operating officer started the same day. Shareholders elected two further directors at a meeting on June 18, 2026.

What to Watch Next: Will PicoCELA Explain the Jump or Raise Capital Again?

The filings state no dated corporate event. Investors will watch for any company statement explaining the October 29 move, the next financial report covering the full fiscal year ended September 30, 2026, and further share issuance given the reported cash runway.
