Financial Results Presentation Materials for the Third Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending December 2026

The cumulative nine-month period ended September 2026 saw declines in revenue and profit, due to a decline following the previous year's contracted projects and changes in the format of large in-person events. The full-year forecast remains unchanged, and profit is progressing broadly in line with plan as a result of expense control.
