First-Quarter Financial Results Presentation for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027

In Q1 FY2027, revenue increased due to the consolidation of Miris and growth in both existing and new businesses, while profit declined because of upfront investments in smart glasses, VTubers and other areas, as well as higher personnel expenses. The company considers progress toward its profit targets to be broadly around 25% and on track in line with its initial plan.

The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue benefited from growth in each business and the consolidation of Miris as a subsidiary. Profit declined year on year due to increases in upfront investments in new businesses, fixed costs including personnel expenses, advertising and sales promotion expenses, development costs, costs associated with consolidating Miris as a subsidiary, and amortization of goodwill. Meanwhile, the decline in the payment processing fee rate resulting from the higher proportion of browser payments on fu wacchi contributed to improved profit margins.
