Financial Results Briefing Materials for the Second Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027

In the first half of the fiscal year ending March 2027, revenue and profit increased year on year due to higher numbers of new elevators commencing construction and sold, higher unit prices, and growth in the number of elevators under maintenance. Operating profit reached a record high. However, results fell short of the initial assumptions due to timing shifts in maintenance and repair projects. The full-year forecast was left unchanged, while the sales mix was revised toward manufacturing and sales.

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.

The increases in revenue and profit were attributable to higher numbers of new elevators commencing construction and sold, higher unit prices, and growth in the number of elevators under maintenance. Results fell short of the initial assumptions due to timing shifts in maintenance and repair projects. The full-year outlook reflects timing shifts in repair projects, with maintenance and repair revenue lowered and manufacturing and sales revenue raised to reflect expected increases in unit prices for new elevators.
