Consolidated: Difference between Business Forecasts and Results for 1H FY12/21

  • Consolidated business results exceeded each forecast indicator in the forecasts for the first half of the fiscal year ending December 2021 due primarily to the successful acquisition of staffing demand in excess of expectations because demand trends of client companies are experiencing a recovery in the mainstay "Short-Term Operational Support Business" and also because we acquired staffing demand from the public sector mainly related to the vaccination roll out.

Consolidated: Revisions to Business Forecast for FY12/21

  • At the Board of Directors' Meeting held on August 6, 2021, we passed a resolution to revise the full-year consolidated business forecast for the fiscal year ending December 2021. We aim to continue to promptly restore the Group's performance in the mainstay "Short- Term Operational Support Business."
  • The revised full-year business forecast takes into account the following elements, in addition to the results for the first half of the fiscal year ending December 2021.
    • Demand from client companies is assumed to recover from the impacts of COVID-19 at a moderate pace heading into the final month of this fiscal year.
    • Growth in the "Short-Term Operational Support Business" is factored into the forecast, assuming the acquisition of staffing demand from public sector projects mainly related to the vaccination roll out and those associated with the Tokyo Olympics.
    • The year-on-year decline in gross profit is due to in the more refined breakdown of tabulation elements used for cost of sales in "BPO" services.
    • The Company does not assume that Japan will issue a fifth state of emergency in the second half of the fiscal year ending December

2021. Note that actual earnings could differ largely from forecasts due to various factors.
