Annual Report for FY2014 New Stories Annual Report Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2014 New Stories of One of the World’s Most Sophisticated Ecosystems Ever since its founding in 1997, Rakuten has been developing a unique, original business model with the goal of becoming the world’s leading Internet services company. By applying this business model, we have created the “Rakuten Ecosystem” for the provision of one-stop access to wide-ranging Internet Services, Internet Finance and Digital Content businesses. At the heart of the business is membership and brand. In fiscal 2014, the Rakuten global gross transaction volume reached ¥6.7 trillion, and the number of members is approximately 700 million. We also have business operations in Japan, Asia, North and South America and Europe. In these markets, we will seek to create a global Rakuten Ecosystem by sharing with overseas group companies expertise cultivated in Japan through implementation of our domestic business model, and by adhering to the corporate philosophy of empowering people and society through the Internet.

ROE continued to rise steadily, 6 from 16.0% in fiscal 2013 to19.6 % in fiscal 2014. 7 Dividend was increased from ¥4.0 to ¥4.5 per share. 4 To Our Shareholders A New Story— See Around the Corner A New Growth Story Began for Rakuten in 2014 2014 marked the 25th anniversary of the World Wide Web, and 18 years since the founding of Rakuten. From our foundation at a time when “people will not buy goods on the Internet” we are aiming towards becoming the global number one Internet services company and we have constructed a sophisticated and unique business model. The expression “Internet of Things” is becoming widely used, and it has become possible to link all goods through the Internet. The number of global Internet users has expanded from 1.02 billion in 2005 to 2.92 billion in 2014. Particularly significant is the fact that the number of people accessing the Internet via smartphone-based mobile infrastructure has reached 1.75 billion. We are also seeing the continual emergence of disruptive technologies that redefine the world’s existing frameworks, as well as an accelerating shift of focus from goods to digital content. Rakuten was quick to respond to this changing environment by moving into the digital content business, starting with the acquisition of Rakuten Kobo in 2012. In fiscal 2014, we continued to concentrate on the development of this business area into a new core segment in the Rakuten Ecosystem. In the Internet Services segment, we further strengthened our services for smart devices, which already account for approximately one-half of gross merchandise sales in Rakuten Ichiba. Another focus was the utilization of big data. Furthermore, in the Japanese market, we launched the R-Point Card, a common point service Starting a New Chapter on Our Journey to No. 1 in Internet Services Worldwide Hiroshi Mikitani Chairman and CEO 5 To Our Shareholders that allows customers at real-world stores to use Rakuten’s Super Point system, which is one of our key strengths. We also launched “ROOM”, a curation-type social shopping service, in the Japanese market. Further Acceleration of Global Expansion Our domestic e-commerce business, especially Rakuten Ichiba, continued to show sustained growth in 2014, and gross merchandise sales from domestic e-commerce was in excess of ¥2 trillion. In Japan, we have been most successful with the B2B2C marketplace business model, and we continued to make steady progress with our efforts to extend this model into other countries. Cross-border integration under the Rakuten Merchant Server global (RMSg) platform was reflected in rapid growth in gross merchandise sales in overseas marketplaces. A new addition to the Rakuten Group in 2014 was Ebates, an online cash- back site based in the United States. We see this as an opportunity to provide new impetus to the global e-commerce market by building a unique and innovative e-commerce platform. In the Internet Finance segment, we maintained steady growth in the number of Rakuten cardholders, and shopping transaction volume increased by 35.1% year on year to approximately ¥3.5 trillion.

  • 210419 Testimony of Tareq Amin FINAL
    Testimony of Tareq Amin Representative Director, Executive Vice President and CTO of Rakuten Mobile Hearing on “Leading the Wireless Future: Securing American Network Technology” U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Energy and Commerce, Subcommittee on Communications and Technology April 21, 2021 Good morning, Chairmen Pallone and Doyle, Ranking Members McMorris Rodgers and Latta, and Members of the Subcommittee. Thank you for the opportunity to testify today on this important topic. I am Tareq Amin, Representative Director, Executive Vice President and CTO of Rakuten Mobile. To start, let me say Rakuten doesn’t think of itself as a mobile operator. We are a technology company, with both Japanese and American DNA, committed to bringing the best of what the technology sector offers to advance the agility, security, and affordability of the wireless networks and services. In fact, Rakuten Mobile is its own first customer. Running on our open cloud-based Rakuten Communications Platform (or RCP), our mobile network in Japan proves that cloud-based wireless networks are no longer a vision that merits discussion. They are not just a proof of concept, they are a reality. We are driving a more diverse supply chain, with continuing innovation across multiple technologies, and providing significant consumer benefit. And, the majority of our network components come from U.S. suppliers. In today’s testimony I want to help you see through my eyes and those of our employees, executives, and customers how we decided to revolutionize mobile and wireless networks and the advantages of such an architecture for American networks. Almost seven years ago, I had an opportunity to visit the data centers of one of America’s top Internet platforms and I was shocked to see how they engineered, how they built, and how they architected their systems.
