  1. Overview of Operating Results
    1. Overview of Operating Results for the Semi-annual Period Under Review

      The RISO Group (RISO) pursues its business activities in line with its Management Policies. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, these are to "Maintain reliable management in the Printing Equipment-Related Business", "Promote planning and development unique to RISO", and "Improve planning in the Corporate Headquarters".

      For the semi-annual period under review, net sales and operating profit decreased, and profit attributable to owners of parent increased compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year. In the Printing Equipment-Related Business, performance was impacted by a slight decrease in sales of main unit products and the appreciation of the yen against the U.S. dollar. In addition, as a result of the integration of the inkjet head business in July 2024, net sales, gross profit, and SG&A expenses increased. The increase in gross profit was also attributable to the cost reduction effect resulting from the business integration.

      In addition, 1 million yen in foreign exchange losses was recorded as non-operating expenses (as opposed to 416 million yen of foreign exchange gains recorded in the same period of the previous fiscal year), and a 101 million yen loss on liquidation of subsidiaries and associates was recorded as extraordinary losses.

      Net sales were 37,620 million yen (down 1.4% year on year), operating profit was 2,540 million yen (down 9.4% year on year), ordinary income was 2,810 million yen (up 6.9% year on year), and profit attributable to owners of parent was 1,791 million yen (up 0.5% year on year).

      The average exchange rates during the semi-annual were 146.04 yen (a 6.59 yen appreciation of the yen year on year) for the US dollar and 168.06 yen (a 2.11 yen depreciation of the yen year on year) for the euro.

      Results by segment are as follows:

      1. Printing equipment-related business

        The Group operates a printing equipment-related business, comprising the Printing Equipment Business and the Inkjet Head Business. Within the Printing Equipment Business, we operate the inkjet business, principally with its ORPHIS high-speed inkjet printers, as well as the digital duplicating business, consisting mainly of its RISOGRAPH digital duplicators.

        In the Printing Equipment-Related Business, both net sales and segment profit decreased during the semi-annual period under review compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, with net sales of 36,801 million yen (down 1.3% year on year) and segment profit of 2,375 million yen (down 10.9% year on year).

        Net sales in Japan amounted to 17,250 million yen (down 2.5% year on year), while overseas net sales reached 19,551 million yen (down 0.3% year on year).

      2. Real estate business

        The Group's real estate business consists of the leasing of buildings.

        Net sales in the real estate business were 504 million yen (down 3.3% year on year), and segment profit was 322 million yen (down 3.1% year on year).

      3. Others

        RISO operates the print creating business, the digital communication business, and the application software business, among others as well as printing equipment-related business and real estate business.

        Net sales in the others were 314 million yen (down 8.9% year on year), and segment loss was 156 million yen (compared to segment loss of 193 million yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year).

    2. Overview of financial position for the Semi-annual Period Under Review

      ①Assets, Liabilities, Net assets

      The financial position at the end of the semi-annual period under review compared to the end of the previous fiscal year is as follows.

      Total assets increased 994 million yen to 89,905 million yen, while net assets fell 1,030 million yen to 65,475 million yen.

      The main changes in the assets section were an increase of 1,828 million yen in cash and deposits, and a decrease of 1,970 million yen in notes and accounts receivable - trade. In the liabilities section, there were increases of 2,168 million yen in short-term borrowings and 688 million yen in retirement benefit liabilities, while long-term borrowings decreased by 375 million yen. In net assets, retained earnings decreased by 1,414 million yen, while foreign currency translation adjustments increased by 559 million yen.

      As a result, the equity ratio decreased by 2.0 points to 72.8%.

      ②Cash flows

      Net cash provided by operating activities was 4,301 million yen (up 82.8% year on year). This is mainly attributable to profit before income taxes of 2,709 million yen, depreciation of 1,460 million yen, a decrease in trade receivables of 2,215 million yen, and income taxes paid of 711 million yen.

      Net cash used in investing activities was 1,040 million yen (down 84.9% year on year). This was primarily attributed to expenditures of 703 million yen for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, 358 million yen for the purchase of intangible assets.

      Net cash used in financing activities was 1,684 million yen (compared to an inflow of 135 million yen in the same period of the previous year). The result mainly reflects a net increase in short-term borrowings of 2,166 million yen, an expenditure of 427 million yen for the purchase of treasury shares, and dividend payments of 3,206 million yen.
