Summary of Financial Results for the Second Quarter (Interim Period) of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027 [Japanese GAAP] (Consolidated)

In the interim period of the fiscal year ending March 2027, revenue declined due to lower television spot advertising revenue and the reaction to the Osaka-Kansai Expo, among other factors. Operating profit, ordinary profit and interim net profit attributable to owners of the parent also declined significantly. The full-year earnings forecast was unchanged, but the annual dividend forecast was reduced to ¥20 from the previous fiscal year's actual dividend of ¥33.

The reasons the company gives

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

Lower television spot advertising revenue, the loss of event-related revenue associated with the Osaka-Kansai Expo held last year, and the loss of revenue due to the closure of housing exhibition venues in the housing business and the transfer of the insurance business, among other factors. The absence of a gain on the sale of non-current assets recorded in the same period of the previous year also contributed to the decline in interim net profit attributable to owners of the parent.
