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.Lower workloads in the steel business following completion of the steelworks system refresh reduced revenue. In addition, labor costs rose due to improved employee compensation and an increase in headcount, while recruitment costs, R&D expenses and internal system costs also increased. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, the company expects to expand its businesses serving customers outside the group, primarily in its priority growth businesses.
