  1. Overview of Operating Results
    1. Overview of Operating Results for the Period Under Review

      During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the global economy continued to face an uncertain outlook. This was due to the prolonged geopolitical risks arising from unstable international conditions and the impact of U.S. trade policy.

      In the global gaming market, which is the Group's primary market, sales of its core products remained at a high level. This was supported by steady demand from casino hotels and other facilities in the North American region. Meanwhile, in the international commercial market, customers continued to adjust their inventories due to the impact of the economic slowdown, mainly in Europe, although market development efforts in the Asian region have progressed and begun to generate results. In addition, in both the domestic commercial market and the market for equipment for the amusement industry, product sales declined due to a reactionary decline following the special replacement demand associated with the issuance of new banknotes in the previous fiscal year. As a result, overall product sales in these markets fell below the level of the same period of the previous fiscal year during the nine-month period under review.

      As a result of the above, net sales for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 amounted to 23,430 million yen (down 22.7% YoY), operating profit was 2,285 million yen (down 52.4% YoY), and due to the recording of foreign exchange gains associated with the depreciation of the yen, ordinary profit was 3,111 million yen (down 37.0% YoY). Meanwhile, profit attributable to owners of parent was 4,976 million yen (up 21.5% YoY), mainly due to the recording of gain on sale of non-current assets as extraordinary income in the second quarter.

      During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the average exchange rates were 147.80 yen to the U.S. dollar (151.63 yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year) and 165.63 yen to the euro (164.70 yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year). The exchange rate applied for mark-to-market valuation as of the end of the third quarter of the consolidated fiscal year was 156.53 yen to the U.S. dollar (158.18 yen at the end of the previous fiscal year).

      Operating results by segment are as follows.

      1. Global Gaming

        Net sales in this segment totaled 15,794 million yen (down 3.7% YoY), mainly due to continued strong sales of bill validator units for gaming machines in North America, while sales to Europe declined. On the profit side, segment profit amounted to 3,859 million yen (up 7.3% YoY), primally due to increased sales of high-margin products.

      2. International Commercial

        Net sales in this segment totaled 3,270 million yen (down 29.0% YoY), mainly due to a decline in sales of bill recycling units, particularly in Europe. On the profit side, the segment posted a loss of 437 million yen (a segment loss of 411 million yen was recorded in the same period of the previous fiscal year), primarily due to the continued upfront investments, including research and development for new products.

      3. Domestic Commercial

        Net sales in this segment totaled 1,648 million yen (down 50.3% YoY) and segment profit was 4 million yen (down 99.6% YoY). These results were mainly due to a reactionary decline following the special replacement demand associated with the issuance of new banknotes, which led to a decrease in sales of core products such as bill recycling units.

      4. Equipment for the Amusement Industry

        Net sales in this segment totaled 2,716 million yen (down 54.8% YoY) and the segment posted a loss of 26 million yen (a segment profit of 1,536 million yen was recorded in the same period of the previous fiscal year). These results were mainly due to a reactionary decline following the special replacement demand associated with the issuance of new banknotes, as well as a decrease in sales of high-margin units for smart gaming machines and related peripheral equipment.

    2. Overview of Financial Position for the Period Under Review
      1. Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets

        Total assets at the end of the third quarter of the current consolidated fiscal period increased by 854 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 50,240 million yen.

        Total current assets increased by 1,255 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 42,721 million yen. While "Cash and deposits" increased by 1,253 million yen and "Securities" increased by 3,657 million yen, inventories decreased by 3,398 million yen.

        Total non-current assets decreased by 385 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 7,431 million yen. While "Other" under investments and other assets increased by 1,141 million yen due to purchase of investment securities, "Property, plant and equipment" decreased by 1,515 million yen due to the sale of the Tokyo Head Office building.

        Total deferred assets decreased by 15 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 86 million yen due to amortization of bond issuance costs.

        Total current liabilities decreased by 1,583 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 6,485 million yen. While "Income taxes payable" increased by 318 million yen, "Notes and accounts payable - trade" decreased by 1,097 million yen and "Current portion of long-term borrowings" decreased by 300 million yen, due to loan repayments.

        Total non-current liabilities decreased by 661 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 8,623 million yen. "Long-term borrowings" decreased by 870 million yen due to loan repayments.

        Total net assets increased by 3,100 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 35,131 million yen. While "Retained earnings" increased by 3,464 million yen due mainly to the recording of profit attributable to owners of the parent and "Treasury shares" decreased by 281 million yen due to the disposal of treasury shares as restricted share-based remuneration, "Foreign currency translation adjustment" decreased by 959 million yen due to the valuation of overseas subsidiaries at fair value.

      2. Cash Flows

        Cash and cash equivalents (hereinafter referred to as "cash") for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, increased by 4,157 million yen compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, amounting to 21,614 million yen.

        The status of each cash flow and their factors for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, are as follows.

        Cash flows from operating activities

        Net cash provided by operating activities was 4,253 million yen (net cash provided of 4,996 million yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year). This was mainly due to an increase in cash resulting from profit before income taxes of 6,387 million yen and a decrease in inventories of 3,083 million yen, while cash decreased due to loss (gain) on sale and retirement of property, plant and equipment of 3,256 million yen, a decrease in trade payables of 1,042 million yen and income taxes paid of 781 million yen.

        Cash flows from investing activities

        Net cash provided by investing activities was 2,478 million yen (net cash used of 191 million yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year). This was mainly due to proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment of 5,112 million yen, while cash decreased due to purchase of investment securities of 2,088 million yen and purchase of property, plant and equipment of 711 million yen.

        Cash flows from financing activities

        Net cash used in financing activities was 2,778 million yen (net cash used of 2,427 million yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year). This was mainly due to repayments of long-term borrowings of 1,170 million yen and dividends paid of 1,509 million yen.

        In addition to these items, there was an increase of 203 million yen in cash resulting from the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents.

    3. Information on consolidated earnings forecasts and other forward-looking statements

    The consolidated earnings forecast has been revised from the full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, which was announced on May 9, 2025.
