This covers various risks, including, but not limited to, economic conditions, customer demand, foreign currency exchange rates, tax rules, regulation and other factors.

Highlights
Results for FY2025
Forecast for FY2026
Sales revenue 893.5 billion yen/ +5.3% (YoY)
Sales of hardware and consumables were steady, including the impact of price adjustments in the P&S business, and sales of machine tools were strong in the Machinery business. In addition to these results, there were positive FX effects, and sales revenue reached a new record high.
Business segment profit 83.6 billion yen/ +10.8% (YoY)
Despite an increase in sales promotion and SG&A expenses, business segment profit increased as a result of effects from higher sales revenues from machine tools in the Machinery business, as well as positive FX effects.
The additional U.S. tariff burden was fully absorbed through price adjustments and control of expenses.
Operating profit 77.9 billion yen/ +15.0% (YoY)
Despite recording FX losses, operating profit increased due to the recording of temporary proceeds, such as a gain on transfer of the Karaoke Club business.
Net income* 67.6 billion yen/ +23.5% (YoY)
Net income reached a new record high with addition of adjustments to tax effects in discontinued operations.
Sales revenue 910.0 billion yen/ +1.9% (YoY)
Business segment profit 85.0 billion yen/ +1.6% (YoY)
Although risks stemming from the situation in the Middle East, soaring parts and materials prices, and the impact of changes in U.S. tariff policies are anticipated, we will increase sales revenue and profits due to business expansion in the industrial area.
We will steadily execute the growth investments outlined in our medium-term strategy, "CS B2027."

Forecast for FY2026
The effects of risks stemming from the situation in the Middle East, soaring parts and materials prices, and changes in
U.S. tariff policies have been factored into the forecasts for FY2026 based on the following assumptions. We plan to continue closely monitoring the situation, assessing impacts, and will update the forecasts for the year as necessary.
Exchange rate
assumptions
1USD=150 yen, 1EUR=180 yen
Impacts of the situation in the Middle East and soaring parts and materials prices
Assuming the situation in the Middle East will continue for about six months, and soaring parts and materials prices will continue whole year.
the following factors are factored into the forecast.
[Risk factors] -25 billion yen
Increased parts and materials costs, primarily for resin and memory
Increased logistics costs
Decreased sales in the Middle East
Decline in factory utilization due to difficulties in procuring parts and materials, and a decrease in sales volume due to subsequent product supply shortages
[Countermeasures] +11 billion yen
Reduction of expenses, control of promotional expenses, cost cutting
Profit impact
Approx.
-14billion yen
(YoY) expected
Impacts of U.S. tariff policy
Comprehensive risks
Assuming a flat 10% additional tariff rate until late July and a flat 15% rate thereafter until the end of the fiscal year, the additional tariff burden is expected to decrease compared to the previous year.
A certain extent of IEEPA tariff refunds is also factored in.
The outlook for profit and loss in the event that the above assumptions do not hold is factored in to a certain extent.
Profit impact
Approx.
+8billion yen
(YoY) expected
Preconditions for Forecast for FY2026
While negative impacts on profit, such as rising costs and declining sales, are anticipated due to the situation in the Middle East and soaring parts and materials prices, these effects will be minimized through the implementation of countermeasures and a review of additional U.S. tariffs.
