The Tokyo-listed company saw its revenue retreat to ¥2.97 billion, down from the ¥3.06 billion recorded during the same period the previous year. This contraction in the top line weighed on core profitability, as operating profit slipped to ¥229 million from ¥258 million, according to the latest financial disclosures.

Bottom-Line Resilience

Despite the challenges in its primary operations, Daitobo’s net profit climbed to ¥91 million, surpassing the ¥66 million earned in the prior year. This growth occurred even as pretax profit fell to ¥82 million, indicating that tax-related adjustments or other non-operating factors likely bolstered the final result.

The company’s earnings per share (EPS) improved to ¥3.05, up from ¥2.20 a year ago. Management confirmed that the figures were calculated based on Japanese accounting standards.
