Revised forecast
Fiscal year ending December 2026 · Full yearPrevious forecast published Dated 13 February 2026The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.
Revenue is expected to fall below the initial forecast due to the longer process for winning contracts for commissioned development and consulting projects using generative AI and the extended period from delivery to acceptance, delayed advertising monetisation caused by the postponed release of the lawyer-search media platform, and sluggish site traffic and service usage for the main services. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to be ¥101 million below the initial forecast due to reductions in advertising and promotional expenses, among others, but this will not offset the decline in revenue and gross profit, and the company is expected to report a loss.

The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue is expected to decline because the process of winning contracts for commissioned development and consulting projects using generative AI, and the period from delivery to acceptance, took longer than expected; monetisation of advertising was delayed by the postponed release of the lawyer-search media platform; and site traffic and service usage for the main services fell below expectations. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to be ¥101 million below the initial forecast due to reductions in advertising and promotional expenses, among others, but this will not offset the decline in revenue and gross profit, and the company is therefore expected to report a loss. The reduction in executive compensation is intended to clarify responsibility for revising the earnings outlook and generate funds for future growth investments.
