Financial Results for the Second Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027: Matters Expected to Attract Significant Interest

In the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027, quarterly revenue reached a record high, while gross profit margin and operating profit margin declined from the same period of the previous year due to the deployment of additional resources to certain projects and the recognition of a provision for contract losses. From the third quarter onward, the company expects revenue growth and a recovery in profit margins, supported by the completion of projects and the winning of large contracts.
