The reasons the company gives

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

The company attributes the shortfall in actual results for the fiscal year ended March 2026 against the initial plan to BP2202-related research and development progressing ahead of schedule, resulting in the earlier recognition of research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the fiscal year ending March 2027 include ¥333 million in non-cash expenses transferred from advances paid in the previous fiscal year.
