United & Collective Swings to Loss in First Quarter

Revenue remained stagnant at 1.74 billion yen, mirroring the performance from the previous year. However, internal profitability metrics collapsed, with operating profit plummeting to 1 million yen from 94 million yen. The company’s bottom line was further weighed down by a pretax loss of 12 million yen, contrasting with the 82 million yen profit reported in the prior year.

Following these results, the company’s earnings per share fell to a loss of 2.32 yen, down from the positive 12.85 yen earned in the 2025 period. These figures, prepared under Japanese accounting standards, reflect the firm’s struggle to maintain margins despite steady top-line revenue.
