The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending June 2025 (July 2024 to March 2025) increased 5.2% from the same period last year, reaching 0.72 billion yen.

This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of a 52.8% decrease in profit.

In the most recent three-month period, from January to March (3Q), the consolidated ordinary profit significantly dropped to 0.12 billion yen, a 58.2% decrease compared to the same period last year. However, the operating profit margin rose from 45.7% in the same period last year to 54.3%.
