(無断転載禁止) * The Company has adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). * “Business profit” is calculated by deducting the cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses from net sales, and accounting for foreign exchange gains and losses determined by the Group, while deducting adjustments in accordance with IFRS and non-recurring items. * Due to rounding, numbers may not match totals. * In FY2027/3, the Group established the Sports & Entertainment Business Division and reorganized our structure to place the fo rmer Ballpark Business under its umbrella. Consequently, beginning with the current interim consolidated accounting period, we have changed the classification of the reportable segment to the Sports & Entertainment Business Division. In addition, due to changes in the scope of business divisions included in corporate overhead expenses, we have also adjusted the amounts of corporate overhead expenses allocated to each reportable segment. Reportable segment information for the previous interim consolidated accounting period has been restated to reflect the new reportable segments. * On October 1, 2026, the Company conducted a three-for-one share split of its common stock. "Earnings per share (basic)" is calculated as if the share split had occurred at the beginning of the year ended March 31, 2026.
