Decline in use of the J System due to reductions in or discontinuation of public support programs
If the company is unable to secure talented creators and content quality fails to reach a level that satisfies customers, additional costs that could not have been foreseen when contracts were signed may arise and affect business performance
Business operations may become impossible due to dependence on the representative director or specific employees
Reason for revision or withdrawal

The primary factors were the termination and early cancellation of transactions with a specific major customer, delays in the timing of some projects and losses arising from management issues at a consolidated subsidiary. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, the impact of the termination of transactions with the specific major customer in the fiscal year ending March 2026 has already been incorporated, and the company has begun rebuilding its subsidiary management structure.
