Overview of Results
Net sales for the first quarter of FY2026 August totaled 34,845 million yen, marking a steady 15.5% year-over-year increase. On the other hand, operating income decreased 19.9% YoY to 2,817 million yen, mainly due to a 30.7% YoY rise in selling, general and administrative expenses. Quarterly net income attributable to owners of parent was 1,795 million yen, a 9.2% YoY decrease. The progress rates against the full-year earnings guidance are 23.2% for net sales and 16.6% for operating income.
Growth Strategy and Investment
During Q1, active investment in recruitment was undertaken, with recruitment expenses increasing 131.4% YoY to 1,560 million yen. While this led to higher selling, general and administrative expenses, the aim is to establish a foundation for high growth from Q2 onwards. The gross profit margin was 32.5%, down 0.7 points YoY, but efforts to improve operational efficiency and enhance services through AI utilization are ongoing. In the medium to long term, SHIFT aims for ¥300 billion in net sales as part of the “SHIFT3000” phase by strengthening sales capabilities, leveraging AI, and advancing M&A activities.
