TOKYO, Apr 14 (Pulse News Wire) – 156A.T reported its second half-yearly results for the fiscal year ending August 2026, which exceeded initial forecasts released on October 14, 2025. Revenue for the period from September 1, 2025, to February 28, 2026, was ¥3,000,457 thousand, surpassing the previous estimate of ¥2,954,360 thousand.
Operating profit reached ¥790,775 thousand, up from the forecasted ¥603,744 thousand, marking a significant improvement. The increase in revenue and operating profit was driven by robust performance across segments, with gross profit rising by ¥185,065 thousand compared to the earlier projection. Enhanced productivity and efficient advertising spending contributed to the improved operating margins, leading to higher-than-expected earnings.
As a result, ordinary profit and net income attributable to parent shareholders increased by ¥187,031 thousand and ¥174,395 thousand respectively, reflecting a positive trend in the company's operations. Despite the strong interim results, 156A.T remains cautious about future investments, particularly in AI-related initiatives, and plans to offer incentives to employees based on productivity gains. Consequently, the company decided not to revise its full-year forecasts published on October 14, 2025.
Any necessary adjustments to the annual outlook will be communicated promptly should there be changes in operational dynamics.
