Second-quarter financial results presentation for the fiscal year ending August 2026 (smartphone summary version)

Revenue exceeded the prior-year period, but higher SG&A expenses due to upfront investments, including hiring, resulted in operating and net losses. Revenue from the core engineer-matching business reached a record high for the 27th consecutive quarter.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Revenue growth slowed due to the absence of the large M&A advisory engagement recorded in the prior year, while investment in hiring full-time engineers and consultants was increased to support medium- to long-term business expansion. As a result, SG&A expenses increased by ¥585 million year on year, reducing operating profit.
