The reasons the company gives

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

In the previous fiscal year, large-scale projects, including software and hardware for digital twins and government projects, as well as the accelerated recognition of hardware revenue associated with the shift toward software, contributed to results. In the current fiscal year, the Company expects earnings to improve as it shifts from lower-margin hardware to higher-margin software, while factoring in higher fixed costs, including research and development expenses.
