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.

New large-scale projects, strong performance in the automotive sector, orders for secondary battery manufacturing equipment and temperature sensors, and large-volume deliveries of food-processing equipment contributed to higher revenue and earnings. Professional, however, reported lower revenue and an operating loss due to a decline in rush demand ahead of price increases in the interior business, the cost of publishing a new catalog, and sluggish growth in the tatami business. The materials do not provide the amounts of the individual factors behind the declines in ordinary income and net income.
