Reason for the revision

Against the backdrop of growth in the generative AI-related market, demand for server package substrates for data centers and high-multilayer substrates increased, particularly overseas, and sales remained strong as the strengthened production structure expanded supply capacity. The weaker yen also made a significant contribution to profit, so the full-year forecast was revised based on actual results and the outlook for future demand.

Previous-period resultsNet sales: ¥40,165 million; operating profit: ¥8,728 million; ordinary profit: ¥8,136 million; profit attributable to owners of the parent: ¥6,114 million; earnings per share: ¥353.86
Dividend forecast revisionThe interim dividend was increased from ¥65.00 to ¥75.00 per share, the year-end dividend forecast from ¥65.00 to ¥75.00, and the annual dividend forecast from ¥130.00 to ¥150.00 per share.

The reasons the company gives

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

Against the backdrop of growth in the generative AI-related market, demand for server package substrates for data centers and high-multilayer substrates increased, particularly overseas. Sales remained strong as expanded production capacity strengthened the supply structure, while the weaker yen also contributed to higher profit. Accordingly, the full-year forecast was revised upward. Dividends were increased based on the revised results forecast and medium- to long-term business trends.
