Impact of Share-Based Compensation
For the six months ended March 31, 2026, we reported a net loss of JPY 2,593 million, compared with net losses of JPY 316 million and JPY 318 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our net loss for the six months ended March 31, 2026 included approximately JPY2.33 billion of share-based compensation expense relating to restricted common shares issued as compensation. This expense was recognized in accordance with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and significantly increased our reported net loss for the period.
The share-based compensation expense is non-cash in nature. Recognition of the expense did not require the Company to make a corresponding cash payment and, accordingly, the expense is added back in reconciling net loss to cash flows from operating activities.
The magnitude of the share-based compensation expense should therefore be considered separately from the Company’s cash-based operating performance when evaluating the results for the six months ended March 31, 2026.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP Net Loss and Non-GAAP Net Loss per Share
We define non-GAAP net loss as GAAP net loss excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP net loss per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net loss by the diluted weighted average common share outstanding. Our management believes non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share are key performance measures and uses such measures to evaluate our operating performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of these adjusted operating results provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis and comparison of our operating results across reporting periods. Our calculation of non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures, if any, reported by our peer companies and therefore may not serve as an accurate basis of comparison among companies. Non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss to non-GAAP net loss for the six months ended March 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024:

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA)
Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by our management to analyse our financial results, establish budgets and operating goals for our business, evaluate our performance and make strategic decisions. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of adjusted EBITDA is useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis and comparison of our operating results across reporting periods. Our calculation of adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures, if any, reported by our peer companies and therefore may not serve as an accurate basis of comparison among companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
We define adjusted EBITDA as our net loss excluding: (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) noncash operating lease expense, (v) other (income) expense, net, and (vi) stock-based compensation expense.

Shareholders’ Equity
Although the JPY2.33 billion share-based compensation expense significantly increased the Company’s reported net loss for the six months ended at March 31, 2026, it did not result in a corresponding JPY2.33 billion reduction in shareholders’ equity. The recognition of the restricted share compensation resulted in a corresponding increase in common shares and additional paid-in capital, which substantially offset the effect of the compensation expense on total shareholders’ equity.
Total shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was as follows:

Operating Cash Flow
The Company’s net cash used in operating activities was as follows:
| (in thousands) | Six Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2024 | ||||||||||
| Net cash used in operating activities | ¥ | (134,549 | ) | ¥ | (245,641 | ) | ¥ | (180,766 | ) | |||
The JPY2.33 billion share-based compensation expense recognized during the six months ended March 31, 2026 did not itself result in a cash outflow. In the operating cash flow section of the statement of cash flows, this non-cash expense is added back to net loss in determining net cash provided by or used in operating activities.
Management, therefore, believes that the Company’s operating cash flow, together with its reported GAAP results, provide important additional context for understanding the impact of the share-based compensation expense on the Company’s financial performance.
