Items this document does not state (13)
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.Revenue increased due to a recovery in consumer demand for products such as smartphones and PCs, solid sales of semiconductor packages, modules and memory products related to generative AI, and higher precious metal prices. The increase in gross profit from expanded sales of new products and higher sales volumes absorbed the rise in expenses from upfront investments, including research and development, resulting in higher operating income. In addition to the increase in operating income, gains on the sale of cross-held shares exceeded those in the previous fiscal year, resulting in higher net income.
