Summary of Results and Variances
This report discloses variances between actual results and the initial forecasts for the second quarter (interim) of the fiscal year ending February 2027. In the first half, sales recognition was brought forward due to a change in the schedule for certain lump-sum contract orders. Productivity improvements from AI utilization and a reduction in goodwill amortization also contributed, resulting in Operating Income, Ordinary Income, and Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent all exceeding initial forecasts. Net Sales reached 5,050 million yen, Operating Income was 394 million yen, Ordinary Income was 406 million yen, and Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent was 255 million yen. The full-year forecast remains unchanged at this time.
Outlook and Factors
Although the profit improvement factors materialized in the first half, because of the impact of accelerated sales recognition, the full-year forecast remains unmodified. Going forward, it will be necessary to monitor the progress of lump-sum contract orders, the continued effectiveness of AI-driven productivity gains, trends in goodwill amortization expenses, and the influence of external factors.
