Japan Stock IR Daily – June 11, 2026 (44 reports)

• NeoJapan Inc. announced its consolidated financial results for the first quarter of FY2027 (February 1, 2026 – April 30, 2026).
• Consolidated net sales reached ¥2,077 million (up 4.1% year-on-year), operating profit ¥683 million (up 6.2%), ordinary profit ¥713 million (up 9.0%), and net profit attributable to owners of parent ¥487 million (up 9.0%).
• Software business sales amounted to ¥1,581 million (up 5.5%), with cloud services sales totaling ¥1,136 million (up 10.5%).
• Key cloud services saw sales of ¥929 million for “desknet’s NEO Cloud” (up 8.6%), ¥117 million for “AppSuite Cloud” (up 36.2%), and ¥26 million for “ChatLuck Cloud” (up 16.8%).
• The full-year consolidated earnings forecast remains unchanged, projecting net sales of ¥8,619 million (up 4.7% year-on-year) and operating profit of ¥2,680 million (up 7.3%). The annual dividend forecast is also maintained at ¥54.00 (interim ¥27.00, year-end ¥27.00).

NeoJapan’s Q1 FY2027 results indicate a solid start to the fiscal year, with all key financial metrics showing year-on-year growth. The robust performance of cloud services within the software business, marked by double-digit growth, suggests a sustained demand for SaaS-based solutions among businesses. The company’s ongoing strategic initiatives in AI-related fields, including business alliances and product enhancements, may be worth monitoring as it navigates the evolving competitive landscape.

• i-mobile Co., Ltd. announced its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of FY2026 (August 1, 2025 – April 30, 2026).
• Net sales for the cumulative third quarter period reached ¥19,208 million, marking a 3.0% increase year-over-year and setting a new record high.
• Operating profit was ¥3,377 million (down 15.0% YoY), ordinary profit was ¥3,491 million (down 11.8% YoY), and net profit attributable to parent company shareholders was ¥2,438 million (down 16.1% YoY).
• The consolidated full-year forecast for FY2026 remains unchanged, projecting net sales of ¥22,000 million, operating profit of ¥4,500 million, ordinary profit of ¥4,460 million, and net profit attributable to parent company shareholders of ¥3,120 million.
• During the cumulative third quarter, a significant change in the scope of consolidation occurred, with Cyber Consultant Inc. being excluded from consolidation.

i-mobile’s Q3 results show a notable divergence between record-high net sales and a decline in profits, which may suggest the impact of strategic investments or shifts in business segment performance. While the Furusato Nozei business shows signs of profit margin recovery due to lower promotional expenses, the ad network business is still in the process of rebuilding its revenue base. The unchanged full-year forecast could indicate management’s confidence in achieving its targets, making the final quarter’s performance worth monitoring.

• Mabuchi Motor Co., Ltd. announced on June 11, 2026, the completion of its acquisition of shares in Masudac Co., Ltd., making it a subsidiary.
• Masudac, established in 1957, is a food machinery manufacturer specializing in confectionery automation, operating both food machinery and food manufacturing businesses.
• The acquisition aims to combine Masudac’s expertise with Mabuchi Motor’s global expansion capabilities and production technology to strengthen overseas development and labor-saving technologies.
• This move is expected to contribute to the business expansion within the three “M” domains (Motion, Machinery, Medical, etc.) under Mabuchi Motor’s “e-MOTO” concept.
• For the fiscal year ended March 2025, Masudac reported consolidated net sales of 14,220 million yen and consolidated operating profit of 881 million yen.

This acquisition suggests Mabuchi Motor’s strategic diversification beyond its core motor business into areas related to “motion,” as articulated in its e-MOTO concept. Entering the food machinery sector could indicate an effort to leverage existing production technologies and international presence in new markets. Investors may find it worthwhile to monitor how Masudac’s specialized knowledge and Mabuchi Motor’s resources are integrated and how these synergies are expected to materialize in the future.

• Tachikawa Corporation announced the finalization of the financial results for its non-listed parent company, Tachikawa Kousan Co., Ltd., for the fiscal year ended March 2026.
• Tachikawa Kousan Co., Ltd. is an investment company and holds 20.6% of Tachikawa Corporation’s voting rights as an “other affiliated company” (as of December 31, 2025).

• Major shareholders include Kosei Hogo Hojin Tachikawa Kosei Hogo Zaidan (50.00%) and Kosei Hogo Hojin Kanto Chiho Kosei Hogo Jigyo Kyokai (30.34%).

This IR disclosure by Tachikawa Corporation provides transparency regarding the financial performance of its non-listed parent company, Tachikawa Kousan Co., Ltd. While the parent company’s financials, primarily engaged in investment, do not directly impact Tachikawa Corporation’s consolidated results, they offer insights into the broader group’s governance and capital strategy. The fact that the parent company’s major shareholders are rehabilitation aid corporations suggests a unique capital structure that may be worth monitoring for its potential implications on long-term corporate direction.

• IKK Holdings Inc. announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter (interim period) of the fiscal year ending October 2026.
• For the interim period (November 1, 2025, to April 30, 2026), consolidated net sales were ¥11,022 million (up 4.9% year-on-year), operating profit was ¥577 million (up 60.1% year-on-year), and ordinary profit was ¥663 million (up 74.8% year-on-year).
• Net income attributable to owners of the parent reached ¥494 million (up 150.6% year-on-year).
• Basic earnings per share for the interim period was ¥16.99.
• As for the consolidated financial position, total assets stood at ¥20,269 million, net assets at ¥12,078 million, and the equity ratio was 59.3%.
• The full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending October 2026 remains unchanged from the most recently announced figures: net sales of ¥22,850 million, operating profit of ¥1,200 million, ordinary profit of ¥1,175 million, and net income attributable to owners of the parent of ¥720 million, with basic earnings per share of ¥25.02.
• By segment, Wedding Business net sales increased by 3.2% to ¥10,043 million, and operating profit increased by 12.1% to ¥820 million. Nursing Care Business net sales increased by 2.3% to ¥331 million, and operating profit increased by 85.2% to ¥27 million. Food Business net sales increased by 121.9% to ¥489 million, recording an operating profit of ¥66 million compared to an operating loss of ¥18 million in the prior year period. Photo Business net sales increased by 31.6% to ¥534 million, but operating profit decreased by 76.7% to ¥18 million.

The interim period results show a substantial increase in all profit metrics compared to the previous year, with a notable surge in net income attributable to owners of the parent. While the food business successfully turned a loss into a profit, the photo business, despite increased sales, saw a decrease in operating profit, which might warrant closer examination by investors. The company’s decision to maintain its full-year forecast could suggest a cautious outlook on the upcoming business environment or future operational developments.

• G-FORLIFE has resolved to implement a 10th-anniversary shareholder benefit for shareholders of record as of September 30, 2026, and March 31, 2027.
• This special benefit will award 10,000 shareholder benefit points each, totaling 20,000 points, to shareholders holding 1,000 shares or more in the “FORLIFE Premium Shareholder Benefit Club” on each record date.

• Amazon Gift Cards will be added to the lineup of shareholder benefit items, starting with the shareholder benefit program for the record date of September 30, 2026. Exchange is scheduled to begin in late November 2026, with 1 point equivalent to 1 yen for Amazon Gift Cards.
• The company stated that the impact of this anniversary shareholder benefit on its business performance is minor.

The implementation of a 10th-anniversary shareholder benefit may serve to reinforce loyalty among existing shareholders and attract new investors by demonstrating a commitment to shareholder returns. The addition of Amazon Gift Cards to the benefit options could enhance flexibility and appeal for shareholders, providing a widely recognized and utilized reward. The expansion of choices for utilizing shareholder benefit points often indicates an effort to increase the perceived value of the program.

• G-Mercury Co., Ltd. announced the disclosure of its parent company, GA technologies Co., Ltd.’s financial results for the second quarter (interim) of the fiscal year ending October 2026.
• G-Mercury’s estimated performance figures are included from page 3 onwards in GA technologies’ financial presentation materials.
• The reason G-Mercury’s performance is presented as an estimate is due to the difference in fiscal year-ends between G-Mercury (February) and its parent company (October), making it impossible to finalize G-Mercury’s results by GA technologies’ reporting date of April 30, 2026.
• G-Mercury’s full-year financial results are scheduled to be disclosed in mid-April 2027.
• As of April 30, 2026, GA technologies Co., Ltd. has a capital of JPY 9,967,798,616 and holds a 53.36% voting rights stake in G-Mercury (as of February 28, 2026).

This announcement provides initial estimated performance figures for G-Mercury via its parent company’s financial report, which may be of interest to investors tracking the company since its acquisition. While these figures are not finalized due to differing fiscal year-ends, they offer an early indication of G-Mercury’s performance as a consolidated subsidiary. Investors will likely monitor future disclosures for G-Mercury’s finalized full-year results to gain a comprehensive understanding.

• G-Timee Co., Ltd. announced its consolidated financial results (Japanese standards) for the fiscal year ended April 2026.
• The fiscal period for April 2026 (November 1, 2025 – April 30, 2026) is a transitional 6-month period due to a change in the fiscal year end.
• During this period, consolidated net sales were ¥21,006 million, operating profit was ¥3,812 million, ordinary profit was ¥3,760 million, and profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥2,439 million.

• Basic earnings per share were ¥24.25 for the fiscal year ended April 2026, and are projected to be ¥59.69 to ¥68.89 for the full fiscal year ending April 2027.

G-Timee’s fiscal year ended April 2026 represents a 6-month transitional period due to a change in the fiscal year end, making direct year-over-year comparisons not applicable. The reported figures for this interim period provide a snapshot of the company’s profitability and revenue generation. The provided full-year earnings forecast for FY2027 offers guidance on the company’s expected future performance.

• Gigworks announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter (interim) of the fiscal year ending October 2026.
• Revenue for the interim period was ¥11,451 million, representing a 3.5% increase compared to the prior interim period.
• Operating income registered ¥290 million, a turnaround from a loss of ¥370 million in the prior interim period.
• Ordinary income was ¥88 million (vs. a loss of ¥475 million in the prior interim period), and net income attributable to owners of parent was ¥9 million (a 91.9% decrease year-over-year).
• The consolidated full-year forecast for FY2026 has been revised, projecting revenue of ¥23,000 million, operating income of ¥400 million, ordinary income of ¥180 million, and net income attributable to owners of parent of ¥50 million.

The increase in revenue and the shift to profitability in operating and ordinary income for this interim period may suggest an improvement in business operations. However, the significant decrease in net income attributable to owners of parent is primarily attributed to a ¥209 million impairment loss on crypto assets, which is a factor worth monitoring for its non-recurring nature. The revision of the full-year earnings forecast could reflect updated business conditions and future outlooks.

• For the consolidated fiscal year ended April 30, 2026 (May 1, 2025 – April 30, 2026), net sales reached ¥29,857 million (up 7.1% year-on-year), operating income ¥2,036 million (up 2.6%), ordinary income ¥2,023 million (up 1.6%), and profit attributable to owners of parent ¥1,356 million (up 11.9%).

• The forecasted annual dividend for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2027, is ¥40.00.
• Sankon Lease Co., Ltd. was newly added to the scope of consolidation during the fiscal year.

Green Cross HD’s financial results for the fiscal year ended April 2026 show a notable increase in sales and all profit metrics, with profit attributable to owners of parent achieving double-digit growth. The increase in dividend payout suggests a focus on shareholder returns. The company’s projections for the next fiscal year, anticipating continued revenue and profit growth, could indicate a positive outlook for ongoing business expansion.

• Consolidated net sales for the fiscal year ended April 2026 were ¥6,574 million, marking a 7.8% increase from the previous fiscal year.

Raccoon Holdings’ FY2026 results show growth in net sales and adjusted EBITDA, contrasting with a decline in ordinary profit and net profit. This disparity may be attributed to factors such as losses from investment limited partnerships and increased fees related to the issuance of convertible bonds with share options. The FY2027 forecast projects continued revenue growth but anticipates a significant decrease in profit items, suggesting that investors may want to monitor the company’s future business strategies and cost structures.

• G-Jellybeans Group announced its consolidated results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 2027 (February 1, 2026 – April 30, 2026).
• Net sales reached ¥1,801 million, marking a 689.5% increase compared to the same quarter last year.
• The company reported an operating profit of ¥46 million, a turnaround from an operating loss of ¥111 million in the prior year’s first quarter.
• Ordinary profit was ¥15 million (compared to an ordinary loss of ¥113 million YoY), and net loss attributable to owners of parent was ¥36 million (compared to a net loss of ¥116 million YoY).
• Two new companies, Sunrise Co., Ltd. and JB Energy G.K., were newly included in the scope of consolidation during this quarter.

G-Jellybeans Group’s Q1 FY2027 results highlight a significant improvement in both net sales and operating profit, largely driven by the inclusion of new consolidated subsidiaries and operational improvements in its lifestyle business. While the top-line performance shows strong growth and a return to operating profitability, the company still reported a net loss for the quarter. Investors may want to monitor how these new ventures and ongoing business transformations contribute to sustained profitability in subsequent periods.

• Early Age Co., Ltd. announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter (interim period) of the fiscal year ending October 2026.
• Net sales were ¥1,666 million (down 7.7% year-on-year), operating profit was ¥315 million (down 9.0% year-on-year), ordinary profit was ¥257 million (down 6.3% year-on-year), and net income attributable to owners of parent was ¥171 million (down 1.6% year-on-year).

• An interim dividend of ¥15.00 per share is planned, and the year-end dividend forecast is also maintained at ¥21.00 per share.

Early Age’s Q2 FY2026 results show a decline in both revenue and various profit metrics compared to the previous year. The significant decrease in revenue from the Development and Sales Business may be a key point of focus for investors. However, the unchanged full-year earnings forecast suggests the company may anticipate a recovery in the latter half of the fiscal year.

• G-GA TECH announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter (interim period) of the fiscal year ending October 2026.
• Revenue reached ¥142,403 million, marking a 28.5% increase compared to the prior interim period.

• Basic earnings per share for the interim period was ¥48.66, down from ¥55.66 in the prior interim period.
• The full-year consolidated earnings forecast for FY2026 remains unchanged, projecting revenue of ¥323,000 million and profit attributable to owners of the parent of ¥5,460 million.
• The estimated annual dividend for the fiscal year end is ¥13.00, with no revisions from the most recently announced forecast.

While the company reported a significant increase in revenue, the decline in profit metrics year-over-year warrants attention. This could suggest increased costs associated with business expansion or a shift in the business structure. The unchanged full-year forecast may indicate management’s confidence in achieving anticipated profitability in the second half of the fiscal year or adherence to an existing strategic plan.

• G-Digital Grid announced its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending July 2026.
• Revenue reached ¥5,107 million (up 6.6% year-on-year), operating profit ¥2,447 million (up 3.1% YoY), ordinary profit ¥2,551 million (up 12.2% YoY), and net profit attributable to parent company shareholders ¥1,871 million (up 17.9% YoY).
• By segment, Power PF business revenue was ¥4,357 million (up 2.9% YoY), Renewable Energy PF business revenue was ¥493 million (up 54.6% YoY), and Other businesses revenue was ¥256 million (up 8.7% YoY).
• The Renewable Energy PF segment recorded a significant profit increase to ¥253 million (up 113.5% YoY), and the Other businesses segment turned profitable at ¥19 million from a loss in the prior year.
• The full-year consolidated earnings forecast has been revised, projecting revenue of ¥6,595 million (up 7.2% YoY) and net profit attributable to parent company shareholders of ¥1,919 million (up 2.6% YoY).

G-Digital Grid’s Q3 FY2026 results show a year-on-year increase across key financial metrics, with the Renewable Energy PF business demonstrating particularly strong growth in both revenue and profit. This segment’s performance appears to be a primary driver for the overall positive results. Investors may want to monitor the company’s progress towards its revised full-year projections.

• Voltage Inc. resolved to acquire 100% of the shares (200 shares) of Opera House Co., Ltd., making it a subsidiary, following a board meeting on June 11, 2026.
• The primary purpose of the acquisition is to strengthen Voltage Group’s “Consumer Business,” identified as a new growth area.
• Opera House Co., Ltd. is a production company with expertise in character-driven game development, proprietary assets like novel game engines, and extensive know-how in illustration and animation production.
• Voltage anticipates four key synergies from this acquisition: (1) strengthening consumer game development, (2) enhancing sales in Asia, (3) collaborating with external strong IPs, and (4) expanding publishing businesses including indie games.
• Opera House Co., Ltd. is expected to become a consolidated subsidiary of Voltage starting from the fiscal year ending June 2027.

This acquisition suggests Voltage’s strategic focus on the “Consumer Business” as a key growth pillar, aligning with its ongoing business portfolio transformation. Integrating Opera House’s game development capabilities and animation business expertise could enable Voltage to pursue diversified business expansion. The success of this M&A in accelerating Voltage’s shift from existing businesses to new areas will be worth monitoring.

• Imura Co., Ltd. announced its consolidated financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 (February 1, 2026 – April 30, 2026).
• Net sales were ¥5,523 million, representing a 2.1% decrease compared to the same period last year.

• Net profit attributable to owners of the parent was ¥142 million, a 68.5% decrease from the prior year.
• Key factors for the decline in profits include increased depreciation expenses due to the new factory operation and a significant decrease in public sector demand previously captured in the prior year.

Imura’s Q1 results show a notable decline in both sales and profits compared to the previous year, primarily influenced by increased depreciation costs from new factory operations and a reversal of public sector demand from the prior period. However, the “Other” segment, which includes overseas subsidiaries and domestic price revisions, showed an improvement in operating profit, suggesting potential diversification efforts. Investors may monitor how these strategic initiatives, particularly the new factory and overseas restructuring, contribute to overall performance in subsequent quarters.

• The consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending July 2026 remains undetermined due to uncertainties such as Trump tariffs and international affairs, making a reasonable prediction difficult at this time.

G-VALUENEX achieved substantial revenue growth and improved operating profit significantly in the third quarter. The strong performance in consulting services and notable sales growth in the US market may suggest positive shifts in their business structure. However, the ongoing status of the consolidated earnings forecast as undetermined highlights the company’s caution regarding external market uncertainties.

• UPCON Co., Ltd. announced its non-consolidated financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 2027 (February 1, 2026 – April 30, 2026).
• Sales reached ¥404 million (up 30.0% year-on-year), operating profit was ¥164 million (up 18.1%), ordinary profit was ¥164 million (up 20.3%), and quarterly net profit was ¥109 million (up 19.9%).

• A stock split of 3 shares for 1 ordinary share was implemented on October 1, 2025, and per-share quarterly net income has been calculated assuming this stock split occurred at the beginning of the previous fiscal year.

UPCON’s Q1 FY2027 results show significant year-on-year increases in sales and all profit metrics, with sales up 30.0% being a notable highlight. This robust growth appears to be primarily driven by solid orders in large-scale and private sector projects. Furthermore, the company’s high equity ratio of 83.6% suggests a strong and stable financial foundation, which could be a positive factor for investors.

• G-POPER’s Q2 FY2026 interim non-consolidated financial results show sales revenue of ¥714 million, a 3.3% increase compared to the previous interim period.
• Operating profit was ¥71 million, representing a 39.5% decrease year-on-year. Ordinary profit decreased by 39.2% to ¥71 million, and interim net profit decreased by 57.7% to ¥57 million.

• Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) grew by 6.0% year-on-year to ¥1,167.888 million, and billing student IDs increased by 6.6% to 483 thousand IDs. However, Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) decreased by 9.0% year-on-year to ¥46,279.
• The full-year forecast for FY2026 remains unchanged from the most recent announcement, projecting sales revenue of ¥1,425 million (up 2.6% year-on-year), operating profit of ¥85 million (down 50.8%), and net profit of ¥55 million (down 59.7%).

While sales revenue increased, the company reported a decrease in profits for the period. This appears to be influenced by a temporary decline in ARPU and seasonal factors specific to the cram school industry during the academic year transition, despite robust new customer acquisition in the core SaaS business. The growth of the “ComiruPay” payment service could contribute to cross-selling and deeper customer engagement, which may influence future revenue structure.

Kamakura Shinsho achieved substantial growth in both sales and profits during the first quarter of FY2027, setting a new record for its Q1 performance. This strong result appears to be driven by robust performance in its nursing care and funeral businesses. With the full-year earnings forecast remaining unchanged, investors may monitor how the company’s performance evolves throughout the remainder of the fiscal year.

• Mitsubishi Electric announced on June 11, 2026, a partial correction to its “Consolidated Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2026 [IFRS].”
• The correction was made due to an error in the capital expenditure figures presented in “4. Supplementary Information (7) Capital Expenditure” on page 14 of the financial results released on April 28, 2026.
• No corrections were made to the XBRL data.
• Specifically, the FY2025 actual capital expenditure for the “Industry & Mobility” segment was revised from 38.9 billion yen to 39.9 billion yen, and for the “Life” segment, it was revised from 61.6 billion yen to 67.1 billion yen.
• Consequently, the consolidated total capital expenditure for FY2025 was upwardly revised from 264.0 billion yen to 270.6 billion yen for tangible fixed assets, and the total sum from 304.1 billion yen to 310.7 billion yen.

This correction pertains to historical capital expenditure figures in specific segments and is not anticipated to directly impact current earnings forecasts or overall financial health. However, investors may scrutinize the company’s internal controls regarding information disclosure, given that the correction occurred after the initial financial results announcement. The absence of corrections to the XBRL data suggests a limited impact on data users.

• Macbee Planet announced its consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026. Revenue was 50,579 million yen (down 2.1% year-on-year), operating profit was 3,650 million yen (down 29.4% year-on-year), and profit attributable to owners of the parent was 2,353 million yen (down 31.6% year-on-year).
• Basic earnings per share for the period were 169.49 yen, compared to 243.41 yen in the previous fiscal year.
• At the end of the period, equity attributable to owners of the parent was 12,614 million yen, and equity per share attributable to owners of the parent was 1,012.71 yen.
• The annual dividend for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026, was 55.00 yen per share (interim 0 yen, year-end 55.00 yen), an increase from 36.00 yen in the previous year. The dividend payout ratio was 28.7%.
• The consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2027, projects revenue of 51,000 million yen (up 0.8% year-on-year), operating profit of 3,000 million yen (down 17.8% year-on-year), and profit attributable to owners of the parent of 1,900 million yen (down 19.3% year-on-year).

The FY2026 results show a decrease in revenue and a double-digit decline in key profit metrics compared to the previous fiscal year. This was attributed to specific factors affecting some major customers, which contrasts with the general growth trend in the internet advertising market. However, the annual dividend increased, indicating a commitment to shareholder returns. The FY2027 forecast anticipates revenue growth but further profit decline, suggesting that adapting to changes in the business environment may remain a key focus.

• Nomura Corporation reported for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending October 2026: net sales of ¥3,838 million (up 18.1% year-on-year), operating profit of ¥560 million (up 79.7% year-on-year), and net income attributable to owners of parent of ¥408 million (up 96.6% year-on-year).
• By segment, Packaging-related business recorded sales of ¥3,371 million (up 21.1% year-on-year), and Logistics and Packaging business recorded sales of ¥466 million (up 0.2% year-on-year).
• Within the Packaging-related business, sales of packaging machinery increased from ¥905 million to ¥1,504 million (up 66.1%), while packaging materials decreased from ¥1,878 million to ¥1,866 million (down 0.6%).
• These Q2 results exceeded the initial Q2 performance forecasts announced at the beginning of the fiscal year.
• The progress rate against the full-year consolidated earnings forecast for FY2026 as of Q2 is 52.2% for net sales, 69.1% for operating profit, 69.2% for ordinary profit, and 74.5% for net income attributable to owners of parent.

Nomura Corporation’s Q2 FY2026 results show significant year-on-year growth across key profit metrics, exceeding initial forecasts. This strong performance appears to be driven by the packaging machinery within the Packaging-related business, likely due to the realization of outstanding orders from the previous fiscal year and the early delivery of projects originally slated for the second half. Given the high progress rates against full-year forecasts, future business trends warrant close monitoring.

• Casa Co., Ltd. announced its consolidated financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 2027 (February 1, 2026 – April 30, 2026).
• Revenue reached ¥3,295 million, marking a 4.5% increase year-over-year.
• EBITDA was a loss of ¥0 million, compared to a profit of ¥5 million in the same period last year.
• Operating loss was ¥148 million, widening from an operating loss of ¥146 million in the prior year’s first quarter.
• Ordinary loss was ¥131 million, compared to an ordinary loss of ¥115 million in the prior year’s first quarter.
• Net loss attributable to owners of the parent was ¥114 million, a decline from a profit of ¥88 million in the same period last year.
• The full-year consolidated earnings forecast remains unchanged, projecting revenue of ¥13,830 million, EBITDA of ¥990 million, operating profit of ¥355 million, ordinary profit of ¥426 million, and net profit attributable to owners of the parent of ¥187 million.

Casa’s Q1 results indicate revenue growth but a deterioration in EBITDA and all profit stages, leading to a shift from net profit to net loss attributable to parent. This can primarily be attributed to an 11.2% increase in selling, general and administrative expenses year-over-year. Conversely, the cost of sales decreased by 1.4% due to reduced provision for doubtful accounts and litigation/disposal expenses, suggesting ongoing efforts to improve cost structure. With the full-year forecast unchanged, investors may monitor the company’s progress in expanding sales, managing costs, and controlling expenses in the coming quarters.

• Serendipity Holdings Co., Ltd. resolved at its Board of Directors meeting on June 11, 2026, to acquire shares of Nikken Sangyo Co., Ltd. through its Special Purpose Company (SPC), Serendipity SPC3 Co., Ltd., making it a subsidiary.
• Nikken Sangyo operates both trading business, primarily for construction machinery parts, and processing business, including lining steel pipes. For the fiscal year ended March 2026 (non-consolidated), it reported ¥9.5 billion in net sales, ¥690 million in operating profit, ¥700 million in ordinary profit, ¥4.2 billion in total assets, and ¥1.7 billion in net assets.
• This acquisition aims to expand the G-Serendipity Group into the construction machinery related sector and to enlarge its sales bases and business domains in the Kansai region.
• Serendipity SPC3 Co., Ltd. is expected to become a subsidiary of Monozukuri Business Succession Holdings Co., Ltd. (JMS), making this the first investment case for JMS.
• Mr. Takehiro Hamaguchi, the current Representative Director and President of Nikken Sangyo, will retain his position, while Mr. Yuki Mizuta from G-Serendipity is scheduled to assume the role of Director and CFO.

This acquisition marks a strategic entry for G-Serendipity into the construction machinery sector, potentially leveraging its existing manufacturing expertise from the automotive components industry. The combination of Nikken Sangyo’s customer base and supply model with G-Serendipity’s management support capabilities could drive business synergies and expansion in the Kansai region. Furthermore, as the inaugural investment for Monozukuri Business Succession Holdings (JMS), this move may offer insights into the future direction and investment strategy of JMS.

• TOPCULTURE Co., Ltd. announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending October 2026 (November 1, 2025 – April 30, 2026).
• Net sales increased by 1.0% year-over-year to ¥9,398 million.
• Operating income was ¥142 million and ordinary income was ¥113 million, marking a turnaround from losses in the previous interim period.

• Basic earnings per share were ¥52.02, and diluted earnings per share were ¥51.96.

• Effective April 1, 2026, TOPCULTURE acquired the bookstore business of nine stores from MEIBUNDO PLANNER Co., Ltd., adding one new company to the scope of consolidation.
• The full-year consolidated earnings forecast is currently under review and remains undetermined.

TOPCULTURE’s Q2 FY2026 results show a modest increase in net sales and a significant shift to profitability. The turnaround in operating income, ordinary income, and net income attributable to owners of parent from losses in the prior year’s interim period suggests an improvement in the company’s financial health. The acquisition of MEIBUNDO PLANNER’s bookstore business and its impact on future performance is a point worth monitoring.

• TORQ Corporation’s consolidated results for the second quarter (interim) of the fiscal year ending October 2026 showed net sales of ¥10,606 million (down 6.6% year-on-year), operating profit of ¥326 million (down 43.4%), ordinary profit of ¥399 million (down 33.5%), and net income attributable to owners of parent of ¥249 million (down 37.0%).

• The full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending October 2026 also remains unchanged, projecting net sales of ¥21,000 million (down 6.8% from the previous year), operating profit of ¥650 million (down 35.6%), ordinary profit of ¥950 million (down 25.7%), and net income attributable to owners of parent of ¥550 million (down 39.2%).
• During this interim period, the company focused on improving the “Neji Net” web sales system and expanding product offerings, but the challenging market conditions due to labor shortages and rising material costs in the construction industry impacted orders and demand.

The announced results indicate a decline in revenue and all profit metrics compared to the prior interim period, suggesting that the challenging business environment in the construction industry has affected the company’s performance. However, the full-year earnings forecast remains unchanged, which could imply an expectation of recovery in the second half of the fiscal year. The evolution of the business environment and the progress of the company’s initiatives will be worth monitoring.

• Meiho Enterprise announced its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending July 2026 (August 1, 2025, to April 30, 2026).
• Consolidated net sales for the cumulative period reached ¥23.47 billion, marking an 18.3% increase compared to the same period of the previous year.

Meiho Enterprise’s Q3 FY2026 results demonstrate strong year-on-year growth across net sales and all profit metrics, with a particularly significant increase in net profit attributable to owners of the parent. This performance appears to be primarily driven by robust property handovers within the real estate development segment. The reiteration of the full-year earnings forecast suggests that the company considers its current progress to be in line with its initial plans.

The upward revision of full-year forecasts and dividend expectations may suggest positive momentum for the company.

• HODL1 Co., Ltd. signed a basic agreement for business alliance (MoU) with Hakuhodo Key3 Inc. on June 11, 2026, aimed at promoting digital bond-related businesses.
• The alliance seeks to combine HODL1’s blockchain technology with Hakuhodo Key3’s expertise in Web3 business production and marketing support to concretely advance digital bond-related projects.

This alliance could indicate HODL1’s strategic move to capitalize on the growing digital bond market by leveraging Hakuhodo Key3’s strong presence in Web3 business development and marketing. The combination of HODL1’s specialized blockchain technology and Hakuhodo Key3’s market engagement capabilities may create new revenue streams and accelerate the adoption of digital bonds across various industries, including entertainment and infrastructure. Investors may monitor the progress of specific project formations and the actual generation of revenue, as the current MoU does not yet carry legal binding force.

• Shinto Holdings (2776) reported consolidated net sales of ¥18,849 million for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 2027 (February 1, 2026, to April 30, 2026), marking a 326.59% increase year-on-year.

Shinto Holdings’ Q1 results show a significant increase in revenue and a return to profitability across key income metrics, which may suggest a positive operational shift. The metal recycling business segment’s substantial sales growth of 344.67% year-on-year, alongside increased sales in real estate-related services and other businesses, appears to be a key driver for these results. The progress against the full-year forecast will be a crucial point for investors to monitor going forward.

P-LASSIC’s financial results for the fiscal year ended April 2026 show revenue growth, but a decline in profits. This was attributed to increased expenses related to business expansion, including reinforced hiring, system-related costs, and temporary depreciation from the relocation of the Tokyo head office.

• The full-year dividend forecast for FY2026 is ¥76.00 per share (interim: ¥36.00, year-end: ¥40.00), representing an increase of ¥15.67 compared to the split-adjusted FY2025 annual dividend of ¥60.33.
• The full-year consolidated performance forecast remains unchanged, with net sales of ¥62,900 million (6.0% increase YoY) and net profit attributable to owners of the parent company of ¥4,400 million (14.2% increase YoY).

While sales experienced a slight decrease, the increase in net profit attributable to owners of the parent company could indicate shifts in the company’s profitability structure or the impact of specific factors. The upward revision of the annual dividend forecast may signal a positive stance on shareholder returns, potentially drawing investor interest. With the full-year earnings forecast remaining unchanged, the company’s performance in the latter half of the fiscal year will be a key area for investors to monitor.

• Silver Life Co., Ltd. announced its non-consolidated financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending July 2026 (August 1, 2025 – April 30, 2026).
• During this period, net sales were JPY 12,125 million (up 10.9% year-on-year), operating profit was JPY 794 million (up 18.3% year-on-year), ordinary profit was JPY 916 million (up 17.4% year-on-year), and quarterly net profit was JPY 563 million (up 17.9% year-on-year).

Silver Life’s Q3 FY2026 results show double-digit growth in sales and all profit categories, with notable expansion in sales to elderly care facilities. This suggests that price revisions and increased in-house production may have contributed to profitability improvements despite rising raw material and logistics costs. Investors may monitor the company’s progress against its unchanged full-year forecasts to assess the sustainability of this performance.

• Net sales are revised from ¥17,700 million to ¥20,000 million, operating profit from ¥3,200 million to ¥4,100 million, ordinary profit from ¥3,000 million to ¥3,900 million, and profit attributable to owners of parent from ¥2,700 million to ¥3,300 million.

• The year-end dividend forecast is revised from ¥19 per share to ¥26 per share, making the total annual dividend ¥26.00.
• The dividend revision is based on the company’s policy of maintaining a dividend payout ratio target of 35% or more, reflecting the updated earnings forecast.

The upward revision of Marumae’s earnings forecast suggests a strong correlation with the robust demand in the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market. The significant percentage increases across key financial metrics could indicate an accelerating growth momentum for the company. Furthermore, the increased dividend forecast reflects a commitment to shareholder returns, aligning with the company’s stated payout ratio policy, which is a point worth monitoring for investors.

• Ohsho Food Service Co., Ltd. resolved to expand and digitize its shareholder benefit program at a board meeting held on June 11, 2026.
• The value of the gift certificates will be increased by approximately 1.25 times, varying by the number of shares held. For example, shareholders holding 100 to less than 300 shares will receive an increase from 4,000 yen to 5,000 yen annually, and those holding 4,000 or more shares will see an increase from 35,000 yen to 42,000 yen annually.

• The new shareholder benefit program will be applicable to shareholders recorded in the shareholder registry as of September 30, 2026.

This enhancement of the shareholder benefit program suggests a commitment to increasing shareholder returns and improving corporate value. The digitization of the gift certificates aims to improve convenience for shareholders while promoting environmental sustainability. Features like 1-yen increment usage and the gifting option could broaden the appeal and utility of the shareholder benefits. Investors may wish to monitor the implementation and impact of these changes, which are set to begin from September 2026.

• G-pluszero published Q&A and an online briefing video for its Q2 FY2026 financial results on June 11, 2026.
• The company identified two main factors for the recent sharp stock price decline: internal (insufficient IR/PR for full-scale AI projects in sales) and external (market trends like “SaaS is Dead” and perceived value shift to generative AI engines).
• AEI Operator’s scope of supported operations is expected to expand, currently handling high-difficulty tasks like personal information hearings at securities firms.
• Delays in IR/PR are attributed to the strategic importance and sensitivity of information disclosure from client side, with an expectation that stock prices will reflect performance once results become public.
• The lower Q2 revenue growth rate compared to the full-year forecast was an intentional plan, prioritizing engineer and scientist resources for service development in the first half.

The company’s detailed responses to investor questions regarding recent market concerns provide clarity on both internal and external factors impacting its performance. The emphasis on expanding AEI Operator’s capabilities and plans for early disclosure of AI implementation successes could be key areas for investors to monitor for future growth indicators. Furthermore, the explanation for the planned lower revenue growth in the first half highlights a strategic investment approach, which may influence how investors perceive its medium-to-long-term trajectory.

• Chiiki Shinbunsha resolved at its Board of Directors meeting on June 5, 2026, to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary and commence paid job placement services.
• The new subsidiary is named “Allegro Vivace Co., Ltd.”, established on June 11, 2026, with a capital of 10 million yen.
• The basic agreement for business integration with UniGrowth Co., Ltd. was dissolved, with discussions officially concluded at the Board of Directors meeting on May 12, 2026.
• To support the launch of the paid job placement business, a partnership agreement for new business development support was signed with AO Co., Ltd. on May 26, 2026.
• The company anticipates a limited impact on its current fiscal year (ending August 2026) performance, with contributions expected from the subsequent fiscal year.

Chiiki Shinbunsha’s decision to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary for its job placement business, rather than proceeding with integration with UniGrowth, suggests a strategic shift towards greater direct control over this key growth area. The collaboration with AO Co., Ltd. for business launch support indicates a focused effort to leverage specialized expertise and achieve early monetization, potentially mitigating initial operational risks. This move aligns with the company’s “Strategic Plan” to build a regional revitalization model connecting local businesses with talent.

This acquisition appears to be a strategic move by G-Cookbiz to expand its service offerings within the restaurant industry, moving beyond talent acquisition to encompass labor management solutions. Incorporating TECH CREW’s product development capabilities could enhance G-Cookbiz’s DX acceleration efforts. While TECH CREW has reported recent losses, the IR indicates an improving profitability trend, suggesting potential for synergy benefits post-integration that investors may want to monitor.
