EXHIBIT 1
IIJ Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Fiscal Year Results for the Year Ending
March 31, 2004;
Gross-Margin Expansion Leads the Way Toward Profitability
TOKYO & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 13, 2004--Internet Initiative Japan
Inc. (Nasdaq: IIJIE) ("IIJ"), one of Japan's leading Internet access and
comprehensive network solutions providers, today announced its financial results
for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year ending March 31, 2004 ("FY
2003").(1)
Highlights of fourth quarter FY2003 results:
-- Revenues totaled JPY 11,617 million ($ 111.5 million), an increase of
20.6% compared to 3Q03 and a decrease of 10.9% compared to 4Q02.
-- Operating income was JPY 350 million ($ 3.4 million), an increase of
48.3% from JPY 236 million in 3Q03 (which 3Q03 amount included the JPY
71 million of accounts receivable from Crosswave Communications Inc.
("Crosswave") that became collectible after previously being
written-off), and a turnaround from an operating loss of JPY 446
million in 4Q02. The increase compared to 3Q03 reflects the increased
revenues from our high-margin Systems Integration ("SI") services. The
increase compared to 4Q02 reflects increased profitability of our SI
services.
-- Adjusted EBITDA(2) was JPY 1,358 million ($ 13.0 million), an increase
of 11.5% from an adjusted EBITDA of JPY 1,218 million in 3Q03 and JPY
459 million in 4Q02.
-- Net income was JPY 669 million ($ 6.4 million), a decrease from JPY
1,979 million in 3Q03 which amount included a special gain of JPY
1,572 million that was generated by the sale of an equity investment,
and a substantial improvement from the net loss of JPY 9,290 million
in 4Q02.
Highlights of full FY2003 results:
-- Revenues totaled JPY 39 billion ($ 372.2 million), a decrease of 11.9%
from FY2002. The decrease largely reflects the first half of FY2003
decline in SI service and equipment sales revenues, which were
adversely affected by weak corporate investment in Japan in that
period.
-- Operating loss of JPY 1.4 billion ($ 13.9 million), an improvement
from an operating loss of JPY 1.7 billion in FY2002. Positive
operating income in 3Q03 and 4Q03 were not sufficient to cover the
first half year's operating loss.
-- Net loss was JPY 105 million ($ 1.0 million), a significant
improvement from JPY 16,477 million in FY2002 when net loss was
negatively impacted by losses associated with our investment in
Crosswave. Other factors affecting the improvement from FY2002 include
positive operating income for the second half of FY2003, a special
gain from the sale of an equity investment and income tax benefits
associated with increased unrealized gains from certain
available-for-sales securities.
-- As a result of ongoing efforts to increase profitability throughout
the Company, we expect yearly operating and net income to turn
positive in FY2004.
Overview of Fourth Quarter and Full FY2003 Financial Results and Business
Outlook(3)
"I am pleased to report that IIJ returned to profitability in the second
half of FY2003," said Koichi Suzuki, President and CEO of IIJ. "Although the
total revenue for FY2003 did not reach the level of FY2002 due to weak corporate
investment and slow economic recovery in the first half, we achieved positive
operating and net income in the second half largely as a result of our strategic
focus on high margin SI and Value Added Services ("VAS") such as Internet
security services and virtual private networks ("VPNs"). We believe that this
strategy has successfully countered the negative impact of Crosswave's
commencement of corporate reorganization in the first half of FY2003 and that we
are now firmly positioned for sustained and profitable growth."
President Suzuki continued, "Japan's economy is recovering and corporate IT
investment has increased in the second half of FY2003. Broad economic growth,
coupled with rapidly increasing demand by our enterprise customers for valued
added and network services, such as security and operational outsourcing,
provided good conditions for resumption in revenue growth. In this environment,
we will continue to develop new high margin services for Japan's increasingly
complicated, and critical, networked economy. By doing so, we hope to strengthen
profitability and are expecting yearly operating and net income to be positive
in FY2004."
"Gross-margins for all of our business lines increased from the fourth
quarter of FY2002 due to an increased emphasis on high margin products and
services, as well as across-the-board cost reductions and internal efficiency
improvements," said Yasuhiro Nishi, CFO of IIJ. "Connectivity and VAS
gross-margin expansion reflects our reduction of Internet backbone costs by JPY
516 million in FY2003 and increased revenue from high margin VAS. SI service
gross-margin increased due to our successful efforts to secure profitable SI
contracts, of which a substantial amount are network-related."
Revenues
Revenues in 4Q03 totaled JPY 11,617 million, a decrease of 10.9% from JPY
13,036 million in 4Q02 and an increase of 20.6% from JPY 9,633 million in 3Q03.

Service, including Data Center Connectivity services, decreased by 3.8% in 4Q03
compared to 4Q02 and decreased by 2.5% compared to 3Q03, mainly due to the
cancellation of service by a regional electric power company's telecom service
arm. IIJ FiberAccess/F Service revenue, which is included in Others,
substantially increased compared to 4Q02 and steadily increased compared to
3Q03, however, the increase did not offset the revenue decreases in IIJ T1
Standard and IIJ Economy Service, which are also included in Others.

services for individual customers, the decrease in IIJ4U service revenues was
offset by the revenue growth of Original Equipment Manufacturer services,
including the CDN ("Contents Delivery Network") platform and NTT's regional
L-mode service. However, dial-up service revenues for corporate customers
decreased due to an increase in their demand for lower-cost broadband services.

VAS revenues were JPY 1,104 million in 4Q03, an increase of 18.5% compared
to 4Q02 but a decrease of 1.9% compared to 3Q03. Internet Data Center services
decreased by 5.2% compared to 4Q02 and by 13.1% compared to 3Q03. The revenue
decrease from 3Q03 was mainly due to the absence in 4Q03 of "one-time" revenues
associated with the construction of special facilities for large customers.
Systems Integration services revenues decreased 18.4% to JPY 4,001 million
in 4Q03 from JPY 4,905 million in 4Q02 and increased 38.5% from JPY 2,889
million in 3Q03.

Cost of Connectivity and VAS was JPY 4,810 million, a decrease of 4.4%
compared to 4Q02 and a decrease of 1.4% compared to 3Q03. The gross-margin ratio
for Connectivity and VAS in 4Q03 was 12.5%, compared to 7.1% in 4Q02 and 13.4%
in 3Q03. The improvement in gross-margin since 4Q02 was largely the result of
our continuous efforts to reduce Internet backbone costs.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Domestic Backbone Costs 902 1,075 (16.1%) 939 (3.8%)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
International backbone costs were JPY 165 million, a decrease of 47.7%
compared to 4Q02 and an increase of 5.7% compared to 3Q03 as we benefited from
our on-going efforts to optimize our network.
Domestic backbone costs were JPY 902 million, a decrease of 16.1% compared
to 4Q02 and a decrease of 3.8% compared to 3Q03. These decreases reflect a
decline in backbone prices, which offset an increase in connection fees with
NTT's regional access networks (FLET'S).
Cost of SI service revenues was JPY 3,054 million in 4Q03, a decrease of
28.1% compared to 4Q02 and an increase of 38.9% compared to 3Q03. The gross
margin for SI was 23.7% in 4Q03 compared to 13.4% in 4Q02 and 23.9% in 3Q03. The
year-over-year improvement in gross-margin was the result of the increased
profitability of SI development contracts and higher consulting fees for network
services.
Sales and marketing expenses were JPY 756 million in 4Q03, a decrease of
4.2% compared to 4Q02 reflecting a reduction in advertising expenses. Sales and
marketing expenses increased of 8.2% compared to 3Q03 primarily as the result of
inclusion in 3Q03 of JPY 71 million of income as a result of the reversal of
allowance for doubtful receivables from Crosswave.
General and administrative expenses were JPY 518 million in 4Q03, a
decrease of 21.7% compared to 4Q02 and an increase of 6.5% compared to 3Q03. The
expense decrease from 4Q02 reflects the absence in 4Q03 of costs associated with
our move into a new office.
Operating income (loss)
Operating income was JPY 350 million in 4Q03, compared to an operating loss
of JPY 446 million in 4Q02 and operating income of JPY 236 million in 3Q03. The
improvement from 4Q02 is due to an increase in SI service profitability. The
improvement from 3Q03 is due to an increase in SI service revenue.
Other expenses for 4Q03 was JPY 226 million, compared to Other Expenses of
JPY 360 million in 4Q02 and Other Income of JPY 1,570 million in 3Q03. The
income in 3Q03 included a special gain on the sale of an equity investment,
which amounted to JPY 1,572 million.
Income tax benefit (expense) for 4Q03 was a benefit of JPY 891 million,
compared to an expense of JPY 97 million in 4Q02 and a benefit of JPY 280
million in 3Q03. The increase compared to 4Q02 and 3Q03 is due to a decrease in
the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, which decrease is primarily
attributable to the income tax effect of increased unrealized gains during the
quarter on certain available-for-sale securities.
Equity in net loss of equity method investees amounted to JPY 189 million
in 4Q03, compared to JPY 8,407 million in 4Q02, and JPY 58 million in 3Q03. The
year-over-year improvement largely reflects the absence of losses associated
with our previous equity investment in Crosswave.
Net income was JPY 669 million in 4Q03, compared to a net loss of JPY 9,290
million in 4Q02 and net income of JPY 1,979 million in 2Q03. The year-over-year
improvement largely reflects the absence of losses associated with our previous
equity investment in Crosswave and an increase in revenue from high margin
business lines. The quarter-over-quarter improvement is the result of positive
operating income and the income tax effect of increases in unrealized gains
during the quarter on certain available-for-sale securities. Basic net income
per ADS equivalent was JPY 8.73 in 4Q03, compared to a net loss of JPY 206.62 in
4Q02 and JPY 25.83 in 3Q03.

Fourth Quarter FY2003 Business Review
Key Service Developments
Enhancement of managed firewall services:
In April 2004, IIJ enhanced its two Internet security managed firewall
services. "IIJ Security Light Service", a low-cost service for small- and
medium-sized enterprises ("SMEs"), has been enhanced to allow for increased
broadband usage by SMEs in Japan. "IIJ Security Standard," a standard service
for corporate customers, has been enhanced to provide greater reliability.
Anti-virus and spam movements:
Since the start of FY2003, IIJ has increased its involvement with industry
groups formed to combat Internet viruses and spam. IIJ and IIJ America
participated in founding the Messaging Anti Abuse Working Group and attended the
December 2003 kick-off meeting. This group, which is composed of 19
international telecommunications companies, ISPs, and related businesses, is
aimed at developing measures to combat spam e-mails and other unethical uses of
the Internet. Additionally, on April 27, 2004, IIJ announced that it had joined
the Japan Messaging User Group ("JMUG"), a working group established in Japan to
discuss ways of implementing countermeasures against spam, viruses, and other
Internet messaging related issues.
Network Infrastructure Developments
In 4Q03, IIJ continued to develop its Internet backbone in order to
maintain the network quality that it provides to its customers. This quarter,
IIJ installed one new circuit and upgraded one pre-existing circuit for the
international backbone. For the domestic backbone, IIJ installed one new circuit
and upgraded two pre-existing circuits. IIJ considered cost effectiveness and
overall profitability in undertaking these upgrades.
Key Developments of the IIJ Group
Enhancement on security solutions:
On April 26, 2004, IIJ announced that IIJ-Tech introduced Security Check-up
Service. Security Check-up Service evaluates the overall security level of
corporate e-mail systems and provides a diagnostic analysis of potential
emerging threats. The service is targeted to customers that do not require a
full instant diagnosis but require an initial glimpse and a thorough "check-up"
of the security level of a company, which will be provided within approximately
two weeks.
Teleconference/Webcast
On May 14 at 9:00 am (ET), IIJ will host a conference call to discuss the
Company's results and outlook. There will be a simultaneous webcast available at
www.vcall.com. A replay will also be available at the same URL.
