The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.

Reason for the revision

In the high-performance products business, demand for semiconductor manufacturing equipment has been recovering more strongly than initially expected, driven by accelerating AI-related investment, among other factors. As a result, each profit item is expected to exceed the previously announced forecasts.
