These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.For the fiscal year ended July 2026, higher revenue in the construction consulting and aquarium businesses drove revenue growth. Operating profit benefited from higher gross profit on increased revenue and reductions in repair costs and SG&A expenses, but was weighed down by higher personnel expenses, including costs related to a third-party allotment to the employee shareholding association, and higher outsourcing costs. Net income increased due to extraordinary income, including gains on real estate sales. For the fiscal year ending July 2027, the company expects higher revenue and earnings, supported by its substantial order backlog, the aquarium business's contribution for the full year, and designated management operations, while the absence of gains on real estate sales is expected to reduce net income.
