  1. Overview of Business Results
    1. Overview of Operations for the Period under Review

      During the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, the global economy generally maintained a solid growth trajectory. However, views on the economic outlook continued to be cautious against a backdrop of regional disparities in business sentiment, trends in trade policies, and rising energy prices caused by escalating tensions in the Middle East.

      In Europe, personal consumption remained strong due to a favorable employment and income environment, and the economy maintained a moderate recovery trend, mainly driven by domestic demand.

      In the U.S., the previously strong economy came to a standstill amid lackluster personal consumption due to price increases resulting from tariff policies, despite signs of recovery in the employment environment.

      In China, the economy remained weak due to the prolonged slump in the real estate sector and a slowdown in personal consumption.

      In Japan, although rising energy prices posed a risk to the economic outlook, continued improvements in the income environment underpinned personal consumption, and the economy maintained moderate growth.

      In this environment, demand for bicycles and fishing tackle continued to be weak, and for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, net sales increased 3.6% from the same period of the previous year to 117,644 million yen. Operating income decreased 35.6% to 10,400 million yen, ordinary income decreased 3.4% to 14,885 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent increased 30.9% to 12,814 million yen.

      Reportable Segment Overview

      ① Bicycle Components

      While the strong interest in bicycles continued as a long-term trend, adjustments of market inventories made gradual progress, despite regional differences.

      Overseas, in the European market, retail sales of completed bicycles were somewhat weak with the onset of the winter off-peak season, and market inventories remained at a somewhat high level.

      In the North American market, while retail sales of completed bicycles remained weak due to an uncertain economic outlook, market inventories remained at an appropriate level.

      In the Asian and Central and South American markets, retail sales of completed bicycles remained weak against the backdrop of lackluster personal consumption, and market inventories remained somewhat high. In addition, in the Chinese market, while interest in cycling as a sport remained firm, retail sales stagnated, and market inventories remained at a somewhat high level.

      In the Oceanian market, retail sales remained strong, and market inventories maintained appropriate levels.

      In the Japanese market, retail sales remained weak due to the soaring price of completed bicycles and rising prices, but market inventories maintained appropriate levels.

      Under these market conditions, the Shimano Group's products continued to be well received, including XTR, the flagship model in our renewed components for mountain bikes, as well as the DEORE XT and DEORE series, while Q'AUTO, which features self-powered automatic gear-shifting function, also received increased attention.

      As a result, net sales from this segment decreased 0.7% from the same period of the previous year to 87,361 million yen, and operating income decreased 46.3% to 7,792 million yen.

      ② Fishing Tackle

      Interest in fishing tackle remained firm, sales remained robust overall, and market inventories maintained appropriate levels.

      In the Japanese market, although sales were lackluster amid a slump in personal consumption resulting from rising prices, adjustments of market inventories made progress.

      Overseas, in the North American market, demand was firm and sales remained strong, despite a cold wave, and market inventories maintained appropriate levels.

      In the European market, sales continued to be strong, and market inventories remained at an appropriate level.

      In the Asian market, sales were strong, supported by ongoing robust demand for high-priced products mainly in the Chinese market, and market inventories remained at an appropriate level.

      In the Australian market, sales remained strong and market inventories maintained appropriate levels, against a backdrop of good weather conditions and favorable fishing conditions.

      Under these market conditions, the new bass rod ZODIAS was well-received in the market. In addition, order-taking continued to be brisk for spinning reels STELLA SW and STRADIC.

      As a result, net sales from this segment increased 18.5% from the same period of the previous year to

      30,175 million yen, and operating income increased 58.6% to 2,596 million yen.

      ③ Others

      Net sales from this segment increased 10.2% from the same period of the previous year to 108 million yen and operating income of 12 million yen was recorded, compared with an operating income of 1 million yen for the same period of the previous year.

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

      Total assets as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 amounted to 937,382 million yen, a decrease

      of 867 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included an increase of 24,397 million yen in buildings and structures, an increase of 10,127 million yen in notes and accounts receivable - trade, an increase of 5,956 million yen in merchandise and finished goods, an increase of 2,952 million yen in investment securities, a decrease of 26,814 million yen in cash and time deposits, and a decrease of 19,812 million yen in construction in progress.

      Total liabilities amounted to 69,392 million yen, an increase of 644 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included an increase of 2,419 million yen in others under current liabilities, an increase of 1,873 million yen in accounts payable - trade, and a decrease of 2,942 million yen in income taxes payable.

      Net assets amounted to 867,990 million yen, a decrease of 1,511 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included an increase of 8,881 million yen in foreign currency translation adjustments, a decrease of 7,088 million yen in acquisition of treasury stock, a decrease of 1,841 in retained earnings, and a decrease of 1,608 million yen in unrealized gain (loss) on other securities.

    3. Forecast for the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2026

    Regarding the consolidated business performance forecasts, while net sales and operating income remain unchanged from our initial projections, ordinary income and net income attributable to owners of parent have been revised as follows, in light of factors such as gain on sales of cross-shareholdings, which was initially expected as non-operating income, as extraordinary income during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026.

    The impact of the recent surge in crude oil prices and other matters due to escalating tensions in the Middle East has not been factored into the business performance forecasts as the outlook remains uncertain at this time.
