The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Domestic IT demand remained strong, while the acquisition of インフォコム was the primary driver of higher revenue and an improved gross margin. Selling, general and administrative expenses and other costs increased by ¥3 billion, mainly due to the consolidation of インフォコム as a subsidiary, but this was absorbed by the larger revenue base and improved gross margin. The full-year forecasts were revised upward based on 1Q results and order trends.
