Summary of Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 [Japanese GAAP] (Consolidated)

These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The factors contributing to the decline in income for the current fiscal year included lower selling prices for crude oil and natural gas, lower sales volumes of liquefied natural gas, higher selling, general and administrative expenses, and the absence of gains on the sale of investment securities recorded in the previous fiscal year. For the next fiscal year, the company expects lower crude oil sales volumes in the Middle East and higher costs due to alternative LNG procurement, while anticipating higher sales volumes in North America following the acquisition of Verdad Resources Intermediate Holdings LLC and higher crude oil prices.
