Operating profit followed a positive trajectory, rising to 1.81 billion yen compared to 1.63 billion yen in the previous year. Pretax profit also strengthened, reaching 1.80 billion yen against 1.64 billion yen reported in the 2025 period.

Earnings per share for the quarter stood at 22.05 yen, down from the 23.52 yen recorded a year earlier. These figures, prepared under Japanese accounting standards, reflect a complex quarter where top-line gains failed to translate into equivalent shareholder returns.
