Financial Results (Consolidated interim accounting period for the fiscal year ending March 2027)

During this interim consolidated accounting period, the domestic economy continued its gradual recovery trend, but concerns persist regarding the situation in the Middle East and the impact of natural disasters. Looking ahead, while economic recovery is expected due to improvements in employment and income conditions and the effects of various policies, it is still necessary to pay attention to the impact of the uncertain business environment and fluctuations in financial and capital markets, resulting in a continued uncertain outlook.
In the information services industry to which our group belongs, we are seeing an increase in projects related to cloud migration, modernization, and AI utilization, driven by companies' efforts to promote digital transformation (DX). Furthermore, investment in data integration and data infrastructure development, which are essential for achieving these goals, is also progressing, and we expect IT investment to remain strong.
Against this backdrop, our group's mission is to "Connect the world’s data and make it useful for everyone." and we are driving a transformation of our business structure through the further expansion of our data integration business, centered on HULFT business and data platform business.

Our group's performance during this interim consolidated accounting period is as shown in the table below.

(Unit: million yen)

The main reason for the decrease in revenue is the decline in sales from the system outsourcing business. On the other hand, the data platform business is expanding due to increased sales of "HULFT Square," which is positioned as a growth driver. As a result, the ratio of sales from the data integration business, which is set as an indicator to measure the transformation of the business structure from a system outsourcing model to a proprietary product service model, reached 58.6% (an increase of 4.9 points compared to the same period of the previous year). The main reason for the decrease in profit is the decline in profitability due to the decrease in sales. In addition, a partial reversal of the provision for order losses recorded in the previous consolidated fiscal year due to acceptance and a reestimation of the provision amount occurred, resulting in a decrease in the provision amount compared to the initial forecast, which contributed to profit.

The segment-by-segment performance for the interim consolidated accounting period is as follows. Inter-segment transactions have not been offset or eliminated below.
In the previous consolidated fiscal year, we adopted a functional organizational structure. However, starting from this consolidated fiscal year, we have changed to a hybrid structure combining a business-based organization and a functional organization, which balances business profitability with company-wide product and service development and operation functions. In conjunction with this change, in order to align the business structure with the segment classification, we have reclassified some of the "Data Platform Business" into the "System Outsourcing Business."
Comparisons and analyses with the previous interim consolidated accounting period are conducted using the revised classifications.

(Unit: million yen)

HULFT Business

In this business, we provide sales and support services for our flagship products, "HULFT" and "DataSpider Servista," which are the standard data integration software in Japan, as well as related products.
Sales totaled 4,838 million yen (down 0.8% year-on-year). The main reason for the decrease in sales was the discontinuation of some products. Operating profit increased to 2,128 million yen (up 3.9% year-on-year) due to cost optimization and other factors.

Data Platform Business

In this business, we leverage our strengths in "HULFT," "DataSpider Servista," and "HULFT Square," a Japan-developed iPaaS, to provide services that improve operational efficiency and drive business innovation by linking internal and inter-company systems with SaaS data.
Sales amounted to 1,275 million yen (a 26.9% increase compared to the same period last year). The main reason for the increase in sales was the increased sales of "HULFT Square." As the introduction of generation AI and AI agents becomes more widespread in many companies, and investment in ERP modernization and related systems expands, the adoption of "HULFT Square" is spreading, mainly among enterprise companies. As a result, sales of "HULFT Square" in this interim consolidated accounting period increased by 69.3% compared to the same period last year. On the other hand, due to an increase in selling expenses and general and administrative expenses, etc., we incurred an operating loss of 1,469 million yen (compared to an operating loss of 1,339 million yen in the same period last year).

System outsourcing business

Our business primarily provides information processing services and system development and operation services to the financial and retail industries.
Sales amounted to 4,319 million yen (down 15.0% year-on-year). The main reason for the decrease in sales was a decline in information processing services. Operating profit amounted to 231 million yen (down 5.5% year-on-year). The main reason for the decrease in profit was a decline in sales. In addition, a partial reversal of the provision for order losses recorded in the previous consolidated fiscal year due to acceptance of some products and a reestimation of the provision amount resulted in a decrease in the provision amount compared to the initial forecast, which contributed to profit.
