Summary of Financial Results for the First Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027 [Japanese GAAP] (Non-consolidated)

Following the absorption-type merger of a subsidiary, the Company’s first-quarter results are on a standalone basis, while the same period of the previous year was reported on a consolidated basis, so no simple year-on-year comparison is provided. The first quarter posted an operating loss, ordinary loss and net loss, but the full-year earnings forecast and dividend forecast were revised upward to reflect higher orders for semiconductor manufacturing equipment and revised selling prices.

Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Strong production of cast-steel products for semiconductor manufacturing equipment, driven by robust AI-related demand; delayed earnings contributions from selling price revisions and higher sales; and shipment timing delays resulting from delays in on-site engineering work and other factors. The full-year forecast revision incorporates higher orders and selling price revisions, as well as higher material costs and increased subcontracting expenses associated with higher production.

The reasons the company gives

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

As 株式会社ダット was absorbed in an absorption-type merger effective 1 July 2025, the current period is reported on a standalone basis, while the same period of the previous year was reported on a consolidated basis. The upward revision to the earnings forecast reflects the expected increase in shipments resulting from orders for cast-steel products for semiconductor manufacturing equipment exceeding expectations, as well as the decision to revise selling prices, which has been incorporated into the forecast. At the same time, higher material costs and increased subcontracting expenses associated with higher production are also expected.
