Revenue for the Japanese firm climbed to 2.98 billion yen, up from 2.77 billion yen a year earlier. While top-line growth remained steady, operating profit saw a minor decline, dipping to 484 million yen from 495 million yen. Pretax profit, however, showed resilience, ticking upward to 489 million yen from 482 million yen.

Earnings per share rose to 37.79 yen, up from 22.31 yen in the previous year. These figures reflect results prepared under Japanese accounting standards.
