Q&A on the Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 Financial Results Briefing

For the fiscal year ended March 2026, revenue and operating profit increased, driven by growth in system development and SI orders, and the company achieved its full-year plan. Ordinary profit and net income, however, declined due mainly to the absence of equity-method investment income and the reversal of the prior year's gain on the sale of shares in affiliates.

The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue benefited from orders from existing customers, transportation and healthcare projects, public-sector and IoT projects, large SI projects, and projects for the retail and wholesale sectors. Operating profit benefited not only from revenue growth but also from higher order unit prices, improved development productivity, and stronger project management. The decline in ordinary profit was attributed mainly to the absence of equity-method investment income, while the decline in net income was primarily due to the reversal of the gain on the sale of shares in affiliates recorded in the previous fiscal year.
