Seraku Co., Ltd. Financial Results Presentation for the Third Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending August 2026

In the third quarter of the fiscal year ending August 2026, revenue and operating profit exceeded the year-earlier period. However, because the number of partner engineers in operation was below plan, revenue progress against the full-year plan was behind schedule, while operating profit was progressing broadly in line with plan.

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.

In Digital Integration, results benefited from operational support and adoption support for enterprise customers, higher added value in the systems integration business, growing demand in the DX business, and the use of business partners. Operating profit increased despite continued investment in the use of partner engineers, AI skills training, and strengthening the sales organization. The delay in revenue against plan was due to the number of partner engineers in operation falling short of plan. The underlying factors included insufficient sales resources, delays in increasing the proportion of quasi-mandate and contract projects, a shortage of project managers, and insufficient reassignment support after projects ended.
