3968 Segue Group Co.,Ltd. 【J-GAAP】
Earnings ReportSegue Group Co,.Ltd. <3968> [TSE Prime] announced its financial results after the market closed on August 13th (16:00). The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2025 (January to June) decreased 8.4% from the same period last year to 0.67 billion yen.
However, the full-year forecast for consolidated ordinary profit has been revised upward 17.5%, from the previous forecast of 1.26 billion yen to 1.48 billion yen (compared to 1.06 billion yen in the previous period), increasing the growth rate from 18.9% to 39.6%, further surpassing the previous forecast of record-high profits for two consecutive terms.
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 July to December period (second half) is expected to surge 2.5 times that of the same period last year, reaching 0.80 billion yen.
In the most recent three-month period, from April to June (2Q), the consolidated ordinary profit/loss turned to a profit of 0.43 billion yen (compared to a loss of 0.07 billion yen in the same period last year).
