The reasons the company gives

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

Steady demand related to AI and data centers, as well as overseas demand related to automobiles and optics, and lower cost of sales resulting from the benefits of mass production through higher output and cost reductions, were cited as factors behind the increase in earnings. The company cited surging tungsten prices, supply constraints and uncertainty over how to pass raw material costs on to selling prices as reasons for not disclosing a forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2027.
