Financial Results Briefing Materials for the First Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending April 2027

In the first quarter of the fiscal year ending April 2027, project revenue fell 14.5% year on year due to delays in recognizing revenue from multiple projects, among other factors, and the operating loss widened. The full-year earnings forecast was left unchanged, while the company won a new mission in France, signed a launch contract for ADRAS-J2, and raised ¥30.6 billion in funding.
