Reason for the revision

The Company expects higher profits due to growth in points in the mobile services business, the contribution of SQUIZ, strong advertising demand on Moppy, particularly for financial offers, and the growing user base of SQUIZ's Oops HAIR, while reflecting an equity-method investment loss at ビットバンク due to the downturn in cryptocurrency markets.

The reasons the company gives

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

The increase in revenue is attributable to growth in points in the mobile services business and the contribution of SQUIZ, which became a consolidated subsidiary on 1 April 2026. The increase in operating profit reflects the capture of strong advertising demand on Moppy, particularly for financial offers, and the contribution to earnings from the growing user base of SQUIZ's flagship product, Oops HAIR. While there were factors contributing to higher ordinary profit, the forecast reflects an equity-method investment loss at ビットバンク due to the downturn in cryptocurrency markets.
