Financial Results Briefing Materials for the Fiscal Year Ended March 2026

In fiscal 2025, consolidated net sales exceeded the previous year, while operating income, ordinary income and net income all declined year on year. The gross margin improved as cost of sales was contained, but SG&A expenses increased due to costs associated with strengthening sales activities and M&A-related expenses, putting downward pressure on profit.

The reasons the company gives

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

Cost of sales was contained by restraining hiring and reducing outsourcing, which improved the gross margin. However, SG&A expenses increased due to higher personnel deployment associated with strengthened sales activities, increased sales promotion expenses and higher M&A-related expenses, causing operating income to fall below the previous year.
