- 2 - 1.Overview of Operating Results (1)Overview of Operating Results for the Quarter Summary of Financial Results During the current consolidated cumulative first quarter (hereinafter, the "period under review"), Japan's economy was on a moderate recovery trend, with private consumption remaining firm against the backdrop of an improvement in the employment and income environment, and signs of a rebound in corporate capital investment were observed. On the other hand, the outlook remains uncertain due to developments in U.S. trade policy and heightened geopolitical risks, including the situation in the Middle East. Under these circumstances, the operating results for the period under review were as follows: net sales amounted to 29,282 million yen (up 17.3% year-on-year), operating profit amounted to 707 million yen (up 64.7% year-on-year), ordinary profit amounted to 711 million yen (up 64.4% year-on-year), and profit attributable to owners of parent amounted to 428 million yen (up 91.0% year-on-year). At the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, the provisional accounting treatment for business combinations was finalized, and the revised amounts after the provisional accounting treatment was finalized are used for comparison with the previous consolidated cumulative first quarter. (Net sales) Net sales for the period under review increased by 17.3% year-on-year. The main factors were the increase in the number of enrolled staff and the rise in the billing unit- costs in the Nisso Group's (hereinafter, the "Group") mainstay Manufacturing・Production Human Resources Services, as well as the contribution to business performance from the company that became a consolidated subsidiary effective July 1, 2025. (Profit) Operating profit for the period under review increased by 64.7% year-on-year. In the Automotive Industry field of the Group's core General Human Resources Services, the number of enrolled staff decreased due to the impact of the situation in the Middle East as well as a wait-and- see approach among client companies regarding their demand for human resources in line with the restructuring of their electrification strategies for automobiles. On the other hand, in the Engineering Human Resources Services, demand caught up with upfront investment made in anticipation of growing demand for semiconductors, leading to an increase in the number of highly skilled human resources enrolled. As a result, gross profit increased by 21.6% year- on-year, and the gross profit margin improved by 0.6 percentage points year-on-year. Regarding SG&A expenses, although SG&A expenses increased by 16.5% year-on-year mainly due to increases in personnel expenses and amortization of goodwill associated with M&A, as well as increases in recruitment-related expenses associated with increased demand, the SG&A expense ratio improved by 0.1 percentage points year-on-year as a result of the absorption of the increase in gross profit. As a result, the operating profit margin was 2.4%, an improvement of 0.7 percentage points year-on- year. Financial Results by Service General Human Resources Services Net sales of the General Human Resources Services for the period under review amounted to 28,208 million yen (up 16.7% year-on-year), and gross profit was 4,665 million yen (up 18.1% year-on-year).

Due to an increase in the billing unit-costs of manufacturing staff, the average monthly net sales per capita amounted to 466 thousand yen (up 3.7% year-on-year). As a result, the gross profit

The number of enrolled engineers at the end of the period was 2,323 (up 275 year-on-year) due to the success of initiatives promoting career changes, and the monthly turnover rate was 1.9% (an improvement of 0.1 percentage points year-on-year). The average monthly net sales per capita amounted to 536 thousand yen (up 7.2% year-on-year).

In addition, in order to build a workplace model that enables people with disabilities to flourish, the Company strives to coexist with local communities, including school officials, support organizations, and the government, while promoting independent activities that make the most of each individual's characteristics, such as accepting contracts for light work from general companies and engaging in Web system development, etc., rather than just employing people with disabilities.

Page 7
- 4 - In the Automotive Industry, net sales for the period under review amounted to 9,812 million yen (down 1.2% year-on-year) due to a decrease in the number of enrolled staff as a result of weak demand for human resources. In the Semiconductor Industry, net sales for the period under review amounted to 4,317 million yen (up 18.0% year-on-year), reflecting a steady increase in the number of enrolled staff due to the continued expansion of human resources needs against the backdrop of increased demand for data centers and AI. In the Electronics Industry, net sales for the period under review amounted to 2,927 million yen (up 8.4% year-on-year), reflecting steady demand for human resources for electronic equipment against the backdrop of increased demand for semiconductors. Human Resources Development The total number of people who received training during the period under review was 5,589. In its General Human Resources Services, the core services of the Group, it has developed education and training facilities nationwide, and is promoting co-creation with clients in the field of human resources development in order to address issues such as the increasing sophistication of production activities, the diversification of human resources needs, and the chronic labor shortages across the entire manufacturing industry. Promotion of Diversity In order to achieve sustainable growth of its business, the Group recognizes that it is important to create workplaces where all employees can have dreams and a sense of satisfaction, and to create an environment where diverse human resources can thrive. In particular, the Group, whose core business is the human resources business, recognizes that responding to the diversification of human resources is key management issue against the backdrop of a declining workforce and an aging population, and has positioned the "Promotion of DE&I (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion)" as its core implementation issue. The "Promotion of DE&I" aims to enhance organizational resilience by securing diverse human resources and placing the right people in the right positions. As an indicator of the progress of its efforts, the Group has set a "diversity ratio" based on the composition of its workforce, including female employees, senior employees, global employees, and employees with disabilities, and has set a target of 40% by FY March 2031. At the end of the period under review, this indicator was at 34.2% (same level as the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year). Although the number of female employees, global employees, and employees with disabilities increased, the diversity ratio remained at the same level as at the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, as the number of consolidated employees also increased.
