Financial Results Briefing Materials for the Second Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending December 2026

For the six months ended June 2026, revenue declined due to a decrease in one-off projects compared with the prior fiscal year, while operating profit and net profit also fell because of higher personnel expenses, depreciation and amortization, advertising expenses and other costs. Against the full-year plan, progress was 43.0% for revenue and 46.1% for operating profit, which the company considers to be in line with the plan.
