GDEP ADVANCE, Inc. reported non-consolidated net sales of ¥4,659 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2026, down 14.3% year on year, but operating profit rose 16.0% to ¥811 million and profit increased 25.7% to ¥589 million as margins improved. Total assets climbed to ¥5,683 million and net assets to ¥3,328 million, while the company also raised its full-year forecast, projecting modest sales growth but double-digit gains in operating profit and earnings per share, and revised its dividend outlook to a higher full-year payout, signaling confidence in earnings quality and balance sheet strength.
