Overview of Performance

The full-year consolidated results for the fiscal year ending March 2026 recorded net sales of 27,859 million yen, operating income of 5,154 million yen, ordinary income of 5,589 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent of 3,073 million yen, all exceeding the previously announced forecasts. Net sales increased by 3.2%, operating income by 13.3%, and net income by 16.0% compared to the previous forecast, demonstrating steady growth. Compared to the previous fiscal year's consolidated results, net sales grew approximately 2.41 times, operating income 2.27 times, and net income increased by 86.6%, marking significant growth.

Factors Behind the Upside and Outlook

The upside in performance this period was driven by strategic measures including the acquisition of SBI Okasan Asset Management Co., Ltd. and Rheos Capital Works Inc. as subsidiaries, alongside generally strong performance across consolidated subsidiaries. Notably, all three domestic asset management subsidiaries recorded favorable inflows of funds, leading to an unexpectedly robust expansion of assets under management and strengthening revenue bases. This accelerated growth toward the fiscal year-end, contributing to the upside in full-year consolidated results.
