Financial Results Presentation for the Third Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending September 2026

For the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending September 2026, net sales, operating profit, ordinary profit and net income were all substantially higher than in the same period of the previous fiscal year, driven by higher gold prices and increased transaction volumes. Ordinary profit and net income have already exceeded the full-year forecasts, although expenses including preparation costs for the lithium-ion battery recycling business are planned for the fourth quarter.

The reasons the company gives

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

Higher gold prices and increased transaction volumes resulted in higher sales and profits. In the precious metals business, gold bullion sales declined as transactions involving the return of gold to customers increased, limiting the increase in net sales. In the environmental business, higher copper prices and increased sales volumes contributed to results. In the systems business, profit declined due to lower sales of quality control systems and a higher allocation burden from indirect functions.
