These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The main factors behind the increase in revenue and profit were high factory utilization supported by the semiconductor business's strong order backlog, robust sales of consumables in the analytical instruments business, and improved production efficiency in the semiconductor business. Demand for the OEM product lineup in the automatic identification business remained sluggish, resulting in weak sales.
