The reasons the company gives

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

The decline in depreciation and amortization included in SG&A expenses is due to higher system utilization as revenue from the digital twin business expands, resulting in part of the depreciation and amortization being reclassified from SG&A expenses to cost of sales. The increase in other expenses is attributable to development and account-related costs associated with system investment and investment in developing new locations. Regarding recruitment, the company provides engineering talent in regional areas with opportunities in design and development and also receives support from local governments. The benefits of the partnership with Marubeni include enhanced global expansion capabilities, including support for overseas offices, and the establishment of a one-stop platform that provides engineering, AI and cloud services as an integrated offering.
