Full-Year Financial Results Presentation for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2026

For the fiscal year ending March 2026, revenue and EBITDA increased substantially, driven in part by the consolidation of ONE MEDICAL. However, operating profit fell below the previous fiscal year and missed the full-year forecast due to upfront investment in the Medical business and weakness in the Media Services business. Operating profit reached a record high in the fourth quarter alone, supported by growth in the Medical business and an improvement in Media Services.

The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue benefited significantly from the consolidation of ONE MEDICAL, which was acquired in November 2024. Operating profit was affected by upfront investment to support future growth in the Medical business, as well as weakness in Media Services during the first half. In the fourth quarter, growth in the Medical business and improved profitability in Media Services contributed to results.
