Overseas mushrooms have been affected by some supplier bidding methods and raw material costs, but market expansion efforts continue. Processed products are expanding channels through eating-out, deli, and e-commerce, with regularhealth supplement purchases contributing. Fine chemicals are maintaining profits through price revisions and stable supply amidst Middle East tensions. Going forward, efforts will continue to pursue mid-term plan-driven new opportunities and regional strategies, with the full-year earnings forecast unchanged.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net sales: 19,343 million yen (YoY +4.4%)\nOperating income: 418 million yen (YoY +136.8%)\nOrdinary income: 777 million yen (YoY +426.1%)\nNet income attributable to owners of parent: 452 million yen (YoY -66.7%)\nTotal assets: 115,729 million yen (Year-end vs prior year +2,030 million yen)\nEquity ratio: 55.7% (Year-end vs prior year -1.4 percentage points)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#Hokuto, #Earnings, #MushroomBusiness, #BusinessSegment","jir_key_figures":"Net sales: 19,343 million yen (YoY +4.4%)\nOperating income: 418 million yen (YoY +136.8%)\nNet income attributable to owners of parent: 452 million yen (YoY -66.7%)","jir_meta_title":"Hokto: FY2027 Q1 Financial Results Summary \u2014 Net Sales 19.3B yen, Operating Income >\u00a5400M","jir_meta_description":"Hokto FY2027 Q1 results.
