The reasons the company gives

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

Although the printing industry continues to face declining print media use and accelerating digitalization, the value of print media is beginning to be reassessed amid concerns about fake information in the age of AI. Against this backdrop, the Company aims to achieve sustainable growth and enhance corporate value by expanding its business reach and strengthening production capacity in the packaging field, where growth is expected, and by creating new added value through the use of digital technologies in the communications field.
