Gross profit rose, but operating loss occurred due to higher selling, general, and administrative expenses. Segment information is omitted due to a single segment. The full-year outlook remains unchanged. The order environment shows improvement in some automotive and robotics-related areas, but cost containment and profitability improvements are challenges.\n\n### Financial Position and Outlook\nTotal assets are about 8,598 million yen, net assets about 5,815 million yen. Increases in cash and deposits and decreases in marketable securities affected asset composition. Despite uncertainties in exchange rates and global markets, the company aims to improve profitability through ongoing order growth and productivity gains. No changes to the 2026 disclosed forecast, but be mindful of potential delays in grant-related subsidies.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net sales: 1,367,121 (YoY +14.7%)\nOperating loss: \u25b3152,158 (-)\nOrdinary loss: \u25b3145,599 (-)\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent for the quarter: \u25b349,166 (-)\nCash and deposits: 2,701,248 ( versus end of previous term +60,239)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#KikuchiManufacturingCo, #Earnings, #QuarterlyEarnings, #Finance, #DomesticStockIR","jir_key_figures":"Net sales: 1,367,121 thousand yen (YoY +14.7%)\nOperating loss: \u25b3152,158 thousand yen\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent for the quarter: \u25b349,166 thousand yen","jir_meta_title":"Kikuchi Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
