Revised forecast
Fiscal year ending September 2026 · Second quarter (interim period)Previous forecast published 14 November 2025The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.
Staffing services performed well as billing rates and the average number of working days increased, while contracted IT services also remained strong due to the strengthened order-taking structure. In IT consulting, however, revenue is expected to decline as projects are selected strategically with a focus on maintaining an optimal resource balance and profit margins. On the earnings side, the increase in gross profit, higher project profit margins, and the later-than-expected timing of some selling, general and administrative expenses, including investments in generative AI and recruitment advertising costs, are expected to contribute.
