Earnings Report

LOGOS HOLDINGS INC. <205A> [TSE Growth] announced its financial results after the market closed on January 14th (15:30). The consolidated ordinary profit/loss for the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending May 2025 (June to November) turned into a loss of 0.62 billion yen (compared to a profit of 0.07 billion yen in the same period last year).

In addition, the full-year consolidated ordinary profit has decreased 60.2%, from the previous forecast of 2.06 billion yen to 0.82 billion yen (compared to 1.35 billion yen in the previous period). This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of a 39.6% decrease in profit.

Based on the first-half performance announced by the company and the full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the consolidated ordinary profit for the December to May period (2H) is expected to grow 12.7% from the same period last year, reaching 1.44 billion yen.

Due to a decline in performance, the company has significantly reduced its planned year-end lump-sum dividend for the current fiscal year from the original plan of 137 yen to 45.33 yen (compared to no dividend in the previous period).

In the most recent three-month period, from September to November (2Q), the consolidated ordinary profit significantly dropped to 0.17 billion yen, a 53.6% decrease compared to the same period last year. The operating profit margin worsened from 4.5% in the same period last year to 1.9%.
