The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Capital investment remained strong against the backdrop of semiconductor demand in AI-related fields, leading to increased orders in the sales business and contract manufacturing business. The upward revision to the full-year forecasts reflects expanding demand, particularly in AI-related fields, and the accumulation of order backlogs.
