The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.For the fiscal year ended March 2026, sales of badminton and tennis equipment and other products grew against a backdrop of solid sports markets, particularly in Asia. The benefit of higher revenue more than offset increases in raw material prices, foreign exchange effects and selling, general and administrative expenses, including advertising and personnel expenses. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, the company expects increased marketing investment to raise global brand awareness and higher personnel expenses associated with strengthening its business platform.
