First-Quarter Financial Results Presentation for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027

In the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027, the recovery in home care services and higher revenue and profit from the integrated services for seniors business were offset by the impact of the prior year's consolidation and closure of locations, as well as investments and higher personnel expenses, resulting in an operating loss. The full-year forecast remains unchanged, and the Company plans to continue investing in personnel, business expansion and infrastructure development from the second quarter onward.

The reasons the company gives

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

The year-on-year decline in profit was attributable to lower revenue in home care services following the consolidation and closure of locations in the previous fiscal year, higher labor costs, and investments in the personnel evaluation system and ICT infrastructure under Care2030. The quarter-on-quarter decline was due to the seasonal impact of the reversal of the fourth-quarter peak season in integrated services for seniors, as well as costs related to new graduate hires.
