Revised forecast
Fiscal year ending June 2027 · Second quarter (interim period) and full yearPrevious forecast published 7 August 2026The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.
Revenue and profit for the first half are expected to fall below projections due to the cancellation or scaling back of projects and fewer order opportunities resulting from circumstances affecting major clients and advertising agencies, weak performance in the event-hosting business due to unsettled weather, failure to meet the plan for securing projects in the promotions business, and a decline in the gross profit margin due to delays in in-house production within the group and in improving the profitability of planning operations. In the second half, the company will focus on expanding business with direct clients, expanding the live entertainment business, improving orders in the promotions business, and restoring the group's earnings power, while leaving its second-half forecast unchanged.
