The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026 (April to December) increased 20.6% from the same period last year, reaching 199 million yen.

However, the full-year forecast for consolidated ordinary profit has decreased 35.3%, from the previous forecast of 340 million yen to 220 million yen (compared to 216 million yen in the previous period), leading to a reduction in the profit growth rate from 57.4% to 1.9%.
