Notice of Revision to Full-Year Earnings Guidance

Overview of the Revision to Earnings Guidance

The full-year revision announced today concerns the consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2027. Net sales are revised downward by 0.7% to 283,000 hundred million yen compared with the previous forecast, while operating income and ordinary income are expected to remain unchanged. Net income attributable to owners of parent and earnings per share remain at 3,000 million yen and 136.14 yen, respectively. The primary reason for the downward revision is a judgment based on results for the interim consolidated period and anticipated future conditions.

Background and Future Outlook

During the interim consolidated period, sales of seasonal products were weak due to adverse weather, while reductions in personnel expenses and utilities helped support profitability by controlling selling, general and administrative expenses. In light of this, net sales are expected to fall short of plan, prompting the revision to the full-year forecast. The company notes the impact of external factors such as foreign exchange, and future results remain subject to uncertainty.
