Draft ＜5070＞ announced consolidated financial results for the 1st quarter (January to March 24) of the fiscal year ending 2024/12 on the 13th. Sales increased 74.6% from the same period last year to 2,777 billion yen, operating profit was 302 million yen (loss of 206 million yen in the same period last year), ordinary profit was 289 million yen (loss of 212 million yen), and quarterly net profit attributable to parent company shareholders was 185 million yen (loss of 171 million yen).

Looking at sales by target area, “display design/architectural design/others” was 1,498 billion yen (197.5% compared to the same period last year), and “office design/project management/others” was 1,278 billion yen (same 153.7%), and sales are expanding without being biased towards specific areas. The main reason for the significant increase in sales is that, in addition to the Group's deep-seated demand for design, quarterly performance fluctuations are leveling off.
