Pasona Group Inc. Revises Consolidated Earnings Guidance for the Full Year Ending May 31, 2025 Pasona Group Inc. revised consolidated earnings guidance for the full year ending May 31, 2025. For the year, the company expected net sales of JPY 309,200 million compared to previous guidance of JPY 320,000 million, operating loss of JPY 1,250 million compared to previous guidance operating profit of JPY 1,700 million, loss attributable to owners of parent of JPY 8,650 million compared to previous guidance of JPY 4,300 million. Reasons for Revision of Consolidated Business Forecasts for the Fiscal Year Ended May 31, 2025: In the current fiscal year, the company planned for a decrease in net sales from the previous fiscal year due to the discontinuation of the Outsourcing segment at the beginning of the current consolidated fiscal year as a result of the sale of shares in a consolidated subsidiary in the previous fiscal year, as well as the peak-out of large-scale BPO Solution projects. Under these circumstances, although we made progress in acquiring new BPO demand associated with productivity improvements and DX promotion at companies experiencing expanding demand, the acquisition of projects did not grow as much as expected toward the end of the fiscal year, and sales are expected to fall short of the previous forecast. In the Expert Solutions business, although the number of temporary workers exceeded the previous year's figures on a monthly basis from April onwards, it is unlikely to reach the previous forecast. These shortfalls in sales have affected profits, which are now expected to fall short of the previous forecast. Career Solutions are expected to exceed initial forecasts, but due to longer-than-expected employment decision periods in the reemployment support business, results are not expected to reach the previous forecast.
