Although net sales are expected to exceed the previous forecast, substantial cost increases (procurement prices and logistics costs) have led to a decline in gross profit margin, and operating income, ordinary income and interim net income attributable to owners of parent are expected to fall short of prior forecasts.\n\n### Outlook and Measures\nThe company intends to offset the downside to the full-year forecast through sales growth from acquiring new customers and company-wide expense reductions such as cuts to selling, general and administrative expenses. The full-year forecast will be maintained based on results through the second quarter, and any further revisions will be promptly disclosed as circumstances require.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: 55,064 million yen (Increased from previous forecast of 54,500 million yen)\nOperating Income: 330 million yen (Decreased from previous forecast of 555 million yen)\nOrdinary Income: 314 million yen (Decreased from previous forecast of 554 million yen)\nInterim Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 187 million yen (Decreased from previous forecast of 371 million yen)\nInterim Net Income Per Share: 30.84 yen (Decreased from previous forecast of 61.09 yen)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#EchoTrading, #RevisionToEarningsForecast","jir_key_figures":"Net Sales: 55,064 million yen (revised from previous forecast of 54,500 million yen)\nOperating Income: 330 million yen (revised from previous forecast of 555 million yen)\nInterim Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 187 million yen (revised from previous forecast of 371 million yen)","jir_meta_title":"Echo Trading Co., Ltd.
