The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026 (April to September) was 1.62 billion yen, a 1.6% increase compared to the same period last year, resulting in an increase in profits compared to the previous forecast of a 23.6% decrease.

In addition, the full-year forecast for consolidated ordinary profit has been revised upward 30.0%, from the previous forecast of 2.50 billion yen to 3.25 billion yen (compared to 3.25 billion yen in the previous period), and the declining rate is expected to decrease from 23.1% to 0.1%.

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 October to March period (second half) is expected to decrease 1.8% from the same period last year to 1.62 billion yen.

In light of the strong performance, the company has increased its planned annual dividend for the current fiscal year from the original plan of 140 yen to 150 yen (compared to 133 yen in the previous period).
