Trend: Downward revision on December 26; operating profit revised to JPY 44.4 billion from JPY 56.4 billion.

Trend <4704> announced a revision to its earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending December 2026, lowering its operating profit estimate from JPY 56.4 billion to JPY 44.4 billion. The downward revision was driven by a significant increase in personnel costs due to the weak yen, as well as higher cloud-related expenses—including AI token costs associated with investments aimed at enhancing competitive positioning and expanding product and service features—and increased expenditures related to the promotion of business brands, which commenced this term.
