「In sales, results were affected by the low level of orders in the fourth quarter of the previous year and by shipments being postponed due to delays in the delivery of purchased parts. Sales fell short of the original plan, totaling ¥6,227 million, up 83.0% year on year.」
Shipments were postponed because of delays in the delivery of purchased parts, causing sales in the textile machinery business to fall short of the original plan. The shortfall due to production and delivery constraints has materialized. - FY2022-Q3MaterialisedAnnual report
「In sales, production declined because orders fell in the previous period, and sales were also carried over because of delays in the delivery of purchased parts, resulting in performance below the original plan.」
Production and sales have been carried over because of delays in the delivery of purchased parts and other factors, and sales continue to fall short of the original plan. - FY2022-Q2MaterialisedAnnual report
「Production decreased because orders fell in the previous period, production was adjusted due to delays in the delivery of purchased parts, and sales were carried over because of shipment delays, resulting in performance below the original plan.」
Production adjustments due to delays in the delivery of purchased parts and shipment delays occurred, causing sales to fall short of plan. The shortfall in orders and sales due to longer lead times for parts has materialized. - FY2022-Q1MaterialisedAnnual report
「In addition, delays in the delivery of purchased parts, mainly due to shortages of semiconductor and electrical components, delayed product shipments, resulting in some projects being carried over to the next period for revenue recognition, and sales fell short of plan.」
Shortages of semiconductor and electrical components and delays in the delivery of purchased parts actually resulted in delayed product shipments and revenue recognition being carried over to the next period. - FY2021-Q3RestatedAnnual report

「Production remains at full capacity in terms of production and sales, and the company is strengthening initiatives to improve production efficiency and expand production capacity, including through capital investment.」
With full production continuing, the Company is strengthening efforts to expand production capacity and improve production efficiency. Although production capacity remains under pressure, no shortfall against the order and sales plans has been explicitly reported for the quarter. - FY2018WorsenedAnnual report
「To respond to these market conditions, the Company worked to expand production capacity and shorten delivery times through active capital investment and improvement initiatives. However, some issues remained unresolved, including requests for shorter delivery times amid expanding demand that exceeded the Company's response capacity and the industry's overall high level of activity, as well as longer lead times for core components, leaving challenges for the future.」
Although the Company advanced production capacity expansion and improvement initiatives, demand growth, requests for shorter delivery times and longer lead times for core components could not be fully absorbed, and the challenges continued. - FY2018-Q3MitigatedAnnual report
「At the same time, progress in improving production efficiency, which had been a challenge, has also improved the company's ability to meet delivery schedules.」
The situation in which the Company had struggled to meet delivery schedules because of insufficient production capacity and the load from custom products improved as production efficiency improved, with corresponding improvements in delivery performance. - FY2018-Q2RestatedAnnual report
「Demand for the machine tools-related business expanded rapidly, driven not only by demand from the automotive industries in Japan and overseas but also by demand in China, where industrial efficiency improvements are advancing. At the same time, production of customized products, which place a heavy burden on production, increased, making it difficult to meet delivery schedules. In these circumstances, the company worked company-wide to expand production capacity and improve production efficiency.」
While demand remains strong, the production load from increased output of custom products and the difficulty of meeting delivery schedules continue, and the Company is continuing efforts to expand production capacity and improve production efficiency. - FY2018-Q1MaterialisedAnnual report
「Demand for machine tools remained strong, supported by capital investment by automotive-related companies in Japan and overseas, but orders and sales fell short of plan because the expansion of production capacity could not keep pace. In response, the Company worked to expand production capacity and increase orders and sales through company-wide support for production activities, initiatives to improve work efficiency and capital investment. However, as contracted projects increased sharply, orders for custom products with high production loads increased, and lead times for the parts used became longer. As a result, in the first quarter, the Company was unable to fully reflect the effects of these improvements in its results.」
Orders and sales fell short of plan because production capacity could not keep pace with strong demand, while the production load from custom products and longer lead times for the parts used compounded the issue.
