The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue growth came from higher sales to existing customers through upselling and cross-selling, as well as higher sales to new customers through expansion into new regions and customer industries. On the profit side, the company cited an accelerated R&D cycle following the adoption of agentic AI, improvements to its algorithms and industry-specific AI models, AI-enabled business automation, and disciplined management of selling expenses. The increase in the annual dividend reflects the return of core free cash flow to positive territory on higher earnings and improved working capital.
