The reasons the company gives

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

In the machine tools business, sales of electrical discharge machines remained strong across all regions, while in the industrial machinery business, demand for optical connectors for data centers continued. Higher factory utilization resulting from increased production volumes and improved production efficiency also supported profit growth. The upward revision to the full-year forecast reflects electrical discharge machine sales in Greater China, sales of precision injection molding machines related to AI and data centers, higher factory utilization accompanying increased production volumes, and relocation compensation recorded in the third quarter, among other factors.
