Summary of Financial Results for the Second Quarter (Interim Period) of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027 [Japanese GAAP] (Consolidated)

For the interim period, revenue increased 24.7% year on year, while operating results turned from a profit to an operating loss and net results also fell into the red. Although higher personnel expenses from investment in human resources and one-time advisory fees related to the tender offer weighed on profit, the full-year forecast was left unchanged.

Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Revenue increased on solid sales across each service, expansion of AI and data utilization projects with existing customers, expansion into adjacent areas, participation in government projects and new orders for projects in the financial sector. On the profit front, higher personnel expenses associated with human capital investment and higher outsourcing expenses, including advisory fees related to the tender offer, had an impact.

The reasons the company gives

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