    Q4 FY3/26 results update. Sustained earnings momentum. The key takeaway for FY3/26 results is that Duskin is on the right trajectory to improve returns, with record-high segment profitability at the Food Group and the Direct Selling Group showing a convincing moderation in earnings decline. The outlook for FY3/27 is for continued progress, particularly with relatively low YoY hurdles for the Direct Selling Group, which had booked upfront costs related to case-equipped mop cleaners. We believe the Food Group will continue to generate high returns despite one-time IT system costs. Targets set for FY3/28 in the medium-term business plan appear challenging in parts, yet we believe the company is on a solid earnings trend.
