Items this document does not state (11)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In the SS business, projects for industrial equipment, automobiles and automotive applications, and digital consumer electronics increased, and the acquisition of high-margin projects raised the profit margin. In the ES business, CAD/CAM-related projects increased, but revenue and profit declined due to changes in FlexSim's sales model and lower PLM utilisation rates. Company-wide profit was weighed down by ¥75 million in temporary M&A-related expenses that are not tax-deductible, depreciation associated with the SAP implementation, and higher costs related to introducing a defined contribution pension plan.
