Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.
Executive summary
Net sales for 1H 2025 rose 0.9% year-over-year to ¥160.5 billion, with overseas sales comprising 34.7% of the total, driven by strong growth in Japan but offset by declines in Greater China and Tarte's performance in North America and Europe.
Operating profit fell 17.7% year-over-year to ¥11.3 billion, mainly due to increased SG&A expenses, including goodwill amortization from PURI and higher logistics costs at Tarte.
Profit attributable to owners dropped 38.9% year-over-year to ¥7.0 billion, impacted by foreign exchange losses from yen appreciation and lower extraordinary gains.
Comprehensive income fell 86.7% year-over-year to ¥2,341 million.
Financial highlights
Gross profit increased slightly to ¥113.2 billion, but SG&A expenses rose by ¥2.9 billion, mainly from selling and administrative costs.
Ordinary profit declined 49.1% year-over-year to ¥9.6 billion, mainly due to foreign exchange losses.
Net income per share decreased from 203.47 yen to 124.36 yen year-over-year.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
