For the interim period (April–September 2026), the company reduced revenue guidance by JPY 2.3bn to JPY 125.0bn and operating profit by JPY 2.0bn to JPY 7.6bn. Full-year revenue is now forecast at JPY 259.0bn, down JPY 1.0bn, with operating profit reduced by JPY 1.7bn to JPY 19.1bn. The company attributed the revisions to escalating raw material costs, project execution delays affecting revenue recognition timing, and anticipated margin pressure in the first half. Management expects partial recovery in the second half through selling price increases and additional cost reduction initiatives.

The interim profit decline of 18–21% across key metrics reflects near-term headwinds, though full-year profit erosion of 7–8% suggests management confidence in offsetting measures. However, the revision underscores vulnerability to commodity price volatility and construction sector cyclicality. Investors should monitor second-half pricing power execution and whether cost controls materialize as guided.
