Outlook and Strategic Priorities

Building on over 10 years of experience in the personal care electrical appliance industry, the Company intends to continue the expansion of its service businesses, which contributed 31.0% of total revenue in their fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, while Pure Beauty continues to operate its established sourcing and wholesaling business in an ordinary-course capacity.
