Materials for the earnings briefing for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027

In the first half of the fiscal year ending March 2027, revenue increased 10.3% year on year, while the operating loss was ¥25 million. However, stringent cost management and the timing shift of certain expenses resulted in a loss substantially below the company's expectations, and the full-year forecast was left unchanged.

The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue benefited from the expansion of subscription-based services, promotions targeting government ministries and local authorities, and higher revenue from テンポスぐるなび. The company attributed the smaller-than-expected loss to rigorous cost management, restrained hiring outside the restaurant support business, improved operational efficiency, and the timing shift of certain expenses into the second half.
