Reason for the revision

Net sales were slightly below the level projected based on the strong initial performance of Inazuma Eleven: Cross, which began distribution on 9 June 2026. On the earnings side, factors including lower royalty payments and platform fees resulting from the shortfall in net sales, as well as lower platform fees due to the increase in advertising expenses and the proportion of external payments, contributed to the result.
