Reason for the revision

On a consolidated basis, revenue increased mainly because PayPay, BEENOS, LINE MAN and other companies were newly included in the scope of consolidation. Operating profit and profit before tax were affected by a gain on the remeasurement of a business combination arising from LINE MAN becoming a consolidated subsidiary, while profit for the year was affected by lower income taxes resulting from a reassessment of the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the utilization of tax loss carryforwards. On a non-consolidated basis, the reasons include higher dividends received from consolidated subsidiaries, a gain on the extinguishment of shares held in connection with an absorption merger, and a lower tax burden resulting from the utilization of tax loss carryforwards.

Previous-period resultsConsolidated: revenue of ¥1,917,478 million, operating profit of ¥315,033 million, profit before tax of ¥274,882 million, profit for the year of ¥202,403 million, and profit for the year attributable to owners of the parent of ¥153,465 million. Non-consolidated: net sales of ¥763,188 million, ordinary profit of ¥65,753 million, and net income of ¥38,277 million.
