The interim sales were 391,212 hundred million JPY, operating income 14,088 hundred million JPY, ordinary income 13,198 hundred million JPY, net income attributable to owners of the parent 8,882 hundred million JPY, and net income per share 113.43 JPY, significantly above the prior forecast.\n\n### Outlook and Key Drivers\nThe primary reason for the first-half performance beating expectations is the strong buyback market and higher productivity per employee, leading to higher buyback unit counts, contributing to increased sales volume and improved profitability per retail unit. For the full year, the company notes that further forecast changes may occur depending on progress in the second half, and the outlook remains cautiously monitored even after the upward revision.","jir_financial_highlights":"Sales (Consolidated): 391,212 hundred million JPY (Previous forecast A: 329,000 hundred million JPY \u2192 Current actual B: 391,212 hundred million JPY, variance +62,212 hundred million JPY, +18.9%)\nOperating income: 14,088 hundred million JPY (Previous forecast A: 10,500 hundred million JPY \u2192 Current actual B: 14,088 hundred million JPY, variance +3,588 hundred million JPY, +34.2%)\nOrdinary income: 13,198 hundred million JPY (Previous forecast A: 10,300 hundred million JPY \u2192 Current actual B: 13,198 hundred million JPY, variance +2,898 hundred million JPY, +28.1%)\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent (Interim): 8,882 hundred million JPY (Previous forecast A: 6,800 hundred million JPY \u2192 Current actual B: 8,882 hundred million JPY, variance +2,082 hundred million JPY, +30.6%)\nNet income per share (Interim): 113.43 JPY (Previous forecast A: 86.85 JPY \u2192 Current actual B: 113.43 JPY, variance +26.58 JPY, +30.6%)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#Nextage, #financial_summary, #JPStocks","jir_key_figures":"Sales (Consolidated): 391,212 hundred million JPY\nOperating income: 14,088 hundred million JPY\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent (Interim): 8,882 hundred million JPY","jir_meta_title":"[Nextage] Upward Revision of 2026 First-Half Results\uff5cSales and Profits Up","jir_meta_description":"Nextage releases actual results for the first half of 2026 and upward revisions to the full-year forecast.
