The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026 (April to September) significantly dropped 55.7% from the same period last year to 0.33 billion yen.

In addition, the full-year forecast for consolidated ordinary profit has decreased 50.0%, from the previous forecast of 2.40 billion yen to 1.20 billion yen (compared to 2.26 billion yen in the previous period).
