INTERLIFE HOLDINGS is entering a new phase of growth, underpinned by a clear strategic focus and disciplined resource allocation. Over the past five years, the Company has carried out a comprehensive restructuring of its business portfolio, leading to consistent improvements in profitability. In Q1 to Q2 (March-August) FY02/2026, the Company achieved an estimated 12-month return on equity (ROE) of 22.9%, a substantial increase from 2.7% in FY02/2021. Management has concentrated resources on its traditional operations, i.e., integrated services for commercial & public facilities, including design, construction and maintenance, while prioritizing large-scale projects with higher profit margins. In response to the persistent labor shortage, the Company has announced its intention to pursue mergers and acquisitions as a key driver of growth. The Company currently focuses on overseeing the operations of its wholly owned subsidiaries engaged in the aforementioned operations. Looking ahead, it intends to pursue strategic acquisitions of companies within the existing sector that demonstrate strong synergies and complementary relationships, similar to the acquisition of SANKEN SYSTEM in the Sound & Lighting Facilities segment. Through these initiatives, the Company aims to expand its market share, achieve cost efficiencies and further enhance its competitive advantage. In other words, these initiatives are expected to capitalize on the Company’s strong management capabilities and support the development of a more robust group structure.

On 27 November 2025, KAGA ELECTRONICS, a leading electronics trading company, held its earnings briefing for Q1 to Q2 (April-September) FY03/2026 via a web conference. Following Q1 (April-June), Q2 (July-September) also achieved higher sales and earnings year on year, and the upward momentum versus the initial Company forecast has continued. In Q2 (July-September), the consolidation of peer KYOEI SANGYO as a subsidiary also contributed to increase sales and earnings; however, even excluding this impact, sales and earnings increased year on year. When announcing Q1 results, the Company revised its full-year forecast to incorporate only the subsidiary consolidation, without reflecting the upside, changing its initial projection from “sales and earnings decline” to “sales and earnings growth.” In contrast, the revision following Q2 (July-September) results reflects the upside in Q1 to Q2 (April-September). According to the Company, steady progress has been made in line with its current medium-term management plan (FY03/2026–FY03/2028), which targets becoming a ¥1 trillion sales company by its 60th anniversary (FY03/2029).

On 19 November 2025, MIMAKI ENGINEERING, which is driving the digitalization of industrial printing, held its earnings briefing for Q1 to Q2 (April-September) FY03/2026. While no major changes have been observed in market demand trends toward digitalization, it has become clear that the Company is facing a short-term adjustment phase in terms of business performance. During the Q1 to Q2 (April-September) period, the Company was affected by intensified competition in DTF (Direct to Film) printers used for printing on textiles & apparel such as T-shirts. Meanwhile, some new product launches originally scheduled for H2 (October-March) have been pushed back to FY03/2027. Consequently, actual results for the Q1 to Q2 (April-September) period came in slightly below the Company’s initial forecast announced on 13 May 2025, and full-year guidance has been revised downward. That said, the Company continues to allocate aggressive spending to create Innovation in line with its Medium- to Long-Term Growth Strategy “Mimaki Innovation 30,” while maintaining an operating profit margin of over 10%. In light of this, there appears to be no significant change in the Company’s long-term growth potential. The plan calls for a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3% in sales over the five years through FY03/2030.
