  1. Overview of Operating Results

    During the six months ended September 30, 2025, the global economy maintained solid growth, led by the robust

    U.S. economy, despite caution in economic activity due to uncertainty surrounding U.S. trade policy. Although the uncertainty is diminishing due to progress in tariff negotiations, downside risks remain in the overall economy due to factors such as a deterioration in corporate performance caused by the burden of tariffs, concerns about rising prices, and rising protectionism.

    In the metalforming machinery industry, the Japan Forming Machinery Association reported that orders received for press during the six months ended September 30, 2025 decreased by 21.2% year on year to ¥61,937 million due to a decline in the predictability of the business environment, which has led to a decrease in orders, mainly from overseas. Under these conditions, orders received by AIDA ENGINEERING, LTD. (the "Company") and its group companies (collectively, the "Group") in the six months ended September 30, 2025 were ¥31,904 million (down 10.8% year on year) due to a decrease in orders for medium and large press (customized press). The order backlog decreased

    to ¥56,519 million (down 10.7% from the end of the previous fiscal year).

    Net sales were ¥38,688 million (up 3.2% year on year), due to increased sales of service and the consolidation of sales of the acquired U.S. subsidiary, HMS Products Co.

    In terms of profit, operating income was ¥3,076 million (up 6.8% year on year), ordinary income was ¥3,159 million (up 17.6% year on year), and net income attributable to owners of parent was ¥2,637 million (up 12.4% year on year), due to increased sales, improved product mix, and improved gross profit margin of presses and service.

    Operating results by segment during the six months ended September 30, 2025 were as follows.

    Japan: Net sales were ¥22,723 million (up 4.8% year on year) due to increased sales of high-speed press. Segment income was ¥1,484 million (up 45.6% year on year) due to improved product mix and improved gross profit margins for customized press and general purpose press.

    China: Net sales were ¥5,941 million (down 4.8% year on year) due to decreased sales of customized press and high-speed press, despite increased sales of general purpose press. Segment income was ¥453 million (up 7.6% year on year) due to decreased SG&A expenses.

    Asia: Net sales were ¥4,642 million (down 16.6% year on year) due to a decrease in sales of customized press and high-speed press. Segment income was ¥196 million (down 23.2% year on year) due to decreased sales.

    Americas: Although net sales were ¥10,619 million (up 18.0% year on year) due to the acquisition of HMS Products Co. and increased sales of services, segment income was ¥582 million (down 31.2% year on year) due to a decline in gross profit margins for customized press and high-speed press.

    Europe: Net sales were ¥6,903 million (down 14.9% year on year) due to a decrease in sales of general purpose press and high-speed press, despite increased sales of customized press and services. Segment income was ¥215 million (up 1.8% year on year) due to improvement in gross profit margins.

  2. Overview of Financial Position

    1. Analysis of financial position

      Total assets as of September 30, 2025 decreased by ¥1,998 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to

      ¥120,863 million.

      Total liabilities decreased by ¥307 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥38,917 million.

      Net assets decreased by ¥1,691 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥81,946 million.
