However, core operating income was 16.4 billion yen, down to 96% year-over-year, marking a downturn. Net income attributable to owners of the parent was 12 billion yen, up 109% year-over-year. Core operating income missed targets and turned to a decline in the final year, affected by weakness in the apparel brand business. Net free cash flow was strong at 12.3 billion yen, an increase of 4.2 billion yen from the previous term. Capital increased to 94.659 billion yen in parent equity, advancing toward an optimal capital structure.\n\n### Business Segment and Mid-Term Plan Results and Challenges\nUnder the mid-term management plan 'VISION-W', revenue growth was achieved, but core operating income fell short. The brand business experienced a decline due to sluggishness in major apparel brands, the digital business is still in the growth phase, and the platform business posted record profits. The B2B business exceeded one-third of segment profit. Over the past nine years, 56.7 billion yen in equity investments have been made through M&A to transform the group\u2019s earnings structure. Challenges include carrying out structural reforms in apparel, revising sales plans, and improving operational precision.","jir_financial_highlights":"Revenue: 284 billion yen (126% increase year-over-year)\nCore Operating Income: 16.4 billion yen (96% year-over-year (turned to decrease))\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of the Parent: 12 billion yen (109% increase year-over-year)\nNet Free Cash Flow: 12.3 billion yen (4.2 billion yen increase from the previous term)\nCapital (Parent Equity): 94.659 billion yen (13.471 billion yen increase from the previous term)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#WORLD_Co_Ltd, #FinancialResultsBriefing, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Revenue: 284 billion yen (126% increase year-over-year)\nCore Operating Income: 16.4 billion yen (96% year-over-year, turned to decrease)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of the Parent: 12 billion yen (109% increase year-over-year)","jir_meta_title":"WORLD Co., Ltd.
