Net sales of Sansan are projected to grow by 10.0% to 12.0% year on year, supported by efforts such as expanding AI-driven features. Net sales of Bill One are expected to increase by 28.0% to 32.0% year on year due to strengthening the sales structure and expanding AI-driven features. As a result, net sales in the Sansan/Bill One Business are forecast to increase by 17.0% to 20.0% year on year. Net sales in the Eight Business are expected to increase 23.0% to 27.0% year on year with event services and the recruitment service serving as growth drivers.

Among selling, general and administrative expenses, personnel expenses are expected to increase by approximately 12% year on year, while advertising expenses are expected to increase by approximately 8% year on year. As a result, adjusted operating profit is forecast to increase by 51.2% to 74.4% year on year. Since our net sales are primarily composed of recurring sales, which accumulate gradually and increase in scale over the course of each quarter, the recording of adjusted operating profit is expected to be weighted toward the second half of the fiscal year. 

For the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027, we expect the operating profit to increase by 52.9% to 76.7% year on year, ordinary profit to increase by 54.1% to 78.0% year on year, profit to increase by 23.6% to 50.8% year on year, and EPS to increase by 23.9% to 51.2% year on year.
