    1. ‌Overview of Consolidated Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2026

      During the nine months under review (July 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026), the Japanese economy was expected to maintain a modest recovery, partly due to various government policies while the employment and income environment improved. In addition, looking at the economies of the Asian region where the Group operates, China is expected to continue its gradual slowdown, although there are signs of recovery and improvement in other countries.

      Meanwhile, downside risks to the economy were a concern, including the impact of developments in the Middle East, volatility in financial capital markets, and trends surrounding U.S. trade policy.

      In order to realize the basic group policy of the 14th Medium-Term Management Plan, "Towards New Portfolio as a Data

      + Technology Company - Creation of New Value," the Group has set the basic policy of "Growth with Optimization" for the consolidated fiscal year under review, the final year of the plan. The Group will shift to business operations that clearly define core businesses and growth businesses and promote a shift to an optimal formation, including the consolidation and elimination of organizations and functions to enhance the Group's overall strength. As a consequence, the Group will promote the shift from decentralization to integration, build an organizational structure that facilitates the optimal allocation of management resources, and advance resource allocation toward businesses with promising medium-to long-term growth prospects.

      The Company has increased the number of Executive Officers effective July 1, 2025. By appointing human resources with expertise and experience in each business field to manage the Company in a concentrated manner, the Group aims to accelerate the speed of its growth by creating businesses through collaboration among businesses and expanding business domains beyond segments, thereby speeding up decision-making related to business execution and maximizing the Group's management.

      At the same time, we will strive to improve management transparency and strengthen corporate governance by securing diverse management personnel and their participation, as well as develop next-generation leaders and future management team members to achieve sustainable growth.

      In the Marketing Support (Consumer Goods & Services) business, we expect solid growth in panel and custom research, our core business, and aim to further improve profitability through process innovation by increasing the value provided to clients and utilizing generative AI. As a growth area, we will also redesign our marketing solutions business in collaboration with NTT DOCOMO, Inc. to promote data utilization consulting and strengthen our CX management system and infrastructure.

      In the Marketing Support (Healthcare) business, we will expand our business into new areas such as promotion, communication to become a decision-making partner in healthcare. We will also promote efforts to create new value based on a patient-centric*1 perspective.

      We will also accelerate our efforts to improve operational efficiency and exceed customer expectations through the use of AI and Group assets.

      In the Business Intelligence business, under the basic policy of "becoming the DX partner of choice for the next 10 years," we will accelerate business growth by continuing to expand the data integration platform and utilization business, solidify our business foundation by strengthening our planning, proposal, and project promotion capabilities, and establish a stock business that provides solutions to common industry issues.

      The group as a whole is promoting optimization of core businesses and growth of growing businesses, while continuing to strengthen capital policies based on a stable financial base, create businesses through inter-group collaboration, implement measures to increase non-financial capital such as human capital, and enhance sustainability.

      As a result of these efforts, the INTAGE Group's consolidated net sales for the nine months under review amounted to

      ¥51,874 million (up 1.8% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥5,568 million (up 30.5%), ordinary profit of ¥5,604 million (up 33.4%), and profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥3,414 million (down 9.8%).

      The results by business segment are described below.

      1. Marketing Support (Consumer Goods & Services)

        In the Marketing Support (Consumer Goods & Services) segment, both sales and profit increased; consolidated net sales of the segment amounted to ¥36,841 million (up 4.2% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥2,791 million (up 55.0%)

        In this segment, panel surveys and custom research, our core business, performed well. Meanwhile, the marketing solutions area, growth business collaborated with NTT DOCOMO, Inc, achieved year-on-year gains. On the other hand, INTAGE Research Inc. posted a decline in sales due to the absence of large projects in the previous year.

        Profits increased due to increased sales from panel surveys and custom research, as well as a decrease in investment expenses.

      2. Marketing Support (Healthcare)

        In the Marketing Support (Healthcare) segment, sales decreased but profit increased; consolidated net sales of the segment amounted to ¥9,565 million (down 0.4% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥2,277 million (up 26.2%).

        In this segment, sales were at the previous year's level due to the strong performance of INTAGE Healthcare Inc.'s mainstay research business and Intage Real World, Inc. despite the impact of the sale of the CRO business of INTAGE Healthcare Inc.

        Profits increased on higher sales in high-margin research businesses.

      3. Business Intelligence

        In the Business Intelligence segment, both sales and profit decreased; consolidated net sales of the segment amounted to

        ¥5,467 million (down 8.6% from the same period of the previous year), with an operating profit of ¥499 million (down 24.5%).

        Although one-time expenses incurred in connection with the integration and relocation of the Nagano office in November 2025 were a factor in the decline in profits, both sales and operating profit were at the planned levels for the business.

        In this business, while INTAGE TECHNOSPHERE Inc. recorded steady sales in the data integration platform and utilization business, a priority area for the company, Buildsystem Co., Ltd. recorded a year-on-year decline in sales due to a reactionary drop from the brisk low-code development projects in the previous year.

        Profitability has improved due to pricing revisions and operational efficiencies, but remains below the previous year's level given lower sales and one-time expenses incurred.

    2. ‌Overview of Financial Position for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2026

    (Assets)

    Current assets increased ¥1,686 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥32,220 million. This increase was mainly due to a rise in notes and accounts receivable - trade, and contract assets by ¥5,664million, while cash and deposits decreased by ¥4,698 million.

    Non-current assets increased ¥158 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥16,547 million. This was mainly due to a ¥514 million increase in other intangible assets and a ¥286 million increase in other investments and other assets, despite a ¥345 million decrease in buildings and structures, net, a ¥248 million decrease in goodwill, and a ¥320 million decrease in investment securities.

    As a result, total assets increased by ¥1,845 million to ¥48,767 million. (Liabilities)

    Current liabilities decreased ¥162 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥12,404 million. This was mainly due to a ¥719 million decrease in provision for bonuses, which was partially offset by a ¥317 million increase in accounts payable-trade and a ¥254 million increase in other.

    Non-current liabilities increased ¥70 million from the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥1,104 million. This was mainly

    due to increases of ¥26 million in lease liabilities and ¥25 million in retirement benefit liability. As a result, total liabilities decreased by ¥92 million to ¥13,508 million.

    (Net assets)

    Total net assets increased by ¥1,938 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥35,259 million. This was largely due to an increase of ¥1,624 million in retained earnings.
