2.Reason for Revision of Financial Forecasts
In the first half of the fiscal year, the Company posted an operating profit of more than 260 million yen, thanks to the steady growth achieved by concentrating investment in the matching business and the success of productivity improvement efforts. As a result, the Company has revised its full-year operating income forecast upward to more than 300 million yen.
With regard to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, although the situation remains uncertain due to the re-emergence of the infection and other factors, there is no change in the Company's future policy at this time.
