| Revenue | JPY 20.0bn | JPY 20.9bn | +4.7% |
| Operating Profit | JPY 1.00bn | JPY 1.09bn | +9.0% |

The company now projects revenue of JPY 20.9bn, up JPY 947M from its prior forecast, with operating profit climbing to JPY 1.09bn. Most notably, ordinary income (keijo rieki)—a Japan-specific metric encompassing operating profit plus non-operating items such as interest and dividend income—is expected to reach JPY 1.34bn, a 34.4% increase. Net profit attributable to parent company shareholders is forecast at JPY 1.03bn, up 47.3% from the previous JPY 700M estimate. Earnings per share are projected at JPY 74.24/share, versus the prior JPY 50.36/share.
Management attributed the upward revision primarily to favorable currency fluctuations, which have boosted both top-line and bottom-line performance across all profit metrics. The company has also increased its year-end dividend to JPY 18.50/share from JPY 17.50/share, reflecting a 5.7% raise. This adjustment aligns with the company’s consolidated dividend payout policy targeting a 35% dividend payout ratio, allowing the firm to return improved earnings to shareholders while maintaining financial discipline.
The revision signals management confidence in sustained operational performance and underscores the material impact of foreign exchange dynamics on the company’s profitability outlook for the current fiscal year.
