Financial Results Briefing Materials for the Second Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending October 2026

In the second quarter of the fiscal year ending October 2026, revenue and profit increased, mainly because the company was able to deliver outstanding orders for packaging machinery ahead of schedule. Results also exceeded the first-half plan set at the beginning of the fiscal year. The full-year forecast remains unchanged. While taking into account the strong first-half progress, the company aims to achieve its full-year plan as expected.
