Overview of Financial Performance
As we move into the year 2026, our company has reported remarkable financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. This update sheds light on our performance metrics that highlight growth across various financial aspects. During this reporting period, our consolidated sales reached an impressive \(559 billion\) yen, showcasing a substantial increase of \(24.9%\) compared to the same period last year. Moreover, our operating profit escalated to \(90.2 billion\) yen, marking a significant growth of \(63.5%\). On the other hand, the recurring profit stood at \(91.7 billion\) yen, a notable \(75.7%\) increase year-on-year. This progress translated into a net profit attributable to shareholders amounting to \(67.1 billion\) yen, revealing a substantial increase of \(133.7%\).
Asset and Liability Overview
At the end of the reporting period, our total assets reached \(854.6 billion\) yen, reflecting an increase of \(24.2 billion\) yen from the previous fiscal year's end. This growth is primarily due to the rising demand within our information and communications segment, leading to an escalation in both receivables and inventory, as well as tangible fixed assets.
On the liabilities side, we observed a decrease of \(35.2 billion\) yen, with total liabilities standing at \(359.7 billion\) yen. This decline is attributed to the repayment of long-term loans, resulting in a drop in interest-bearing debt, coupled with the payment of outstanding corporate taxes.
The net assets section also saw a positive shift, increasing to \(494.8 billion\) yen, which represents an increase of \(59.5 billion\) yen compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. This rise is again primarily due to the reported net income attributable to the shareholders, although the payment of dividends did lead to a slight reduction in retained earnings.
Future Outlook and Updates
In line with our growth, we also made revisions to the consolidated performance forecasts for the entire fiscal year ending March 2026, which were initially announced on August 7, 2025. At the Board of Directors' meeting today, we decided to implement an interim dividend, along with adjustments to the predicted year-end dividend.
We encourage our stakeholders to refer to the specific details published in our latest announcements concerning the revised forecasts and interim dividends provided today on November 7, 2025. For complete information, please view our official press releases available at the following links:
