Presentation Script for the First Quarter Financial Results Briefing for the Fiscal Year Ending February 2027

In the first quarter, revenue was broadly unchanged year on year, while gross profit and operating profit declined due to delays in project acceptance and the impact of growth investments. However, assuming a second-half-weighted earnings profile, the company assesses that progress toward its full-year plan is in line with expectations.

The reasons the company gives

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

Customer budgeting was pushed back amid uncertainty about the outlook for the manufacturing industry, resulting in project reviews and delays in project acceptance. Selling, general and administrative expenses also increased due to growth investments, including recruitment, system development and the opening of regional offices.
