"Business profit" is defined as sales and share of profit of associates and joint ventures minus cost of sales, selling expenses, research and development expenses, and general and administrative expenses. Business profit does not include other operating income or other operating expenses. Overview of Operating Results In the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company's consolidated sales decreased 0.4% year on year, or ¥1.5 billion, to ¥364.0 billion. This was mainly due to the effect of currency translation, despite increase in sales in the Healthcare and Others segment and other factors. Business profit increased 9.7% year on year, or ¥4.1 billion, to ¥47.2 billion primarily due to the effect of higher revenue in the Healthcare and Others segment. Profit attributable to owners of the parent company totaled ¥32.2 billion, up 34.4% year on year, or ¥8.2 billion, primarily due to the realization of exchange differences on translation of foreign operations resulting from the sale of Ajinomoto Althea, Inc. The Company has not revised the financial results forecast announced on May 8, 2025. Overview by segment Sales and business profit by segment are summarized below.

There are three reportable segments: Seasonings and Foods, Frozen Foods, and Healthcare and Others. Each reportable segment is a component of the Group for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Management Committee in determining the allocation of management resources and in assessing performance. Shared companywide expenses are expenses not attributable to specific reportable segments and used to be allocated to each reportable segment based on certain criteria according to the management approach. However, in order to more appropriately evaluate the performance of each reportable segment, the Company has decided not to allocate shared companywide expenses to reportable segments beginning this current fiscal year. This change has been applied retroactively to the segment figures for the previous fiscal year. As a result of this change, in the three months ended June 30, 2024, segment business profit increased ¥4,638 million in Seasonings and Foods, ¥1,056 million in Frozen Foods, ¥3,482 million in Healthcare and Others, and ¥187 million in Other, while shared companywide expenses decreased ¥9,365 million. Shared companywide expenses mainly relate to the parent company's administrative divisions.
