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.Net sales increased due to higher semiconductor capital investment accompanying the spread and expansion of generative AI, as well as increased sales to major customers in Taiwan, the United States and other markets. Profit increased due to higher sales and the impact of foreign exchange gains resulting from the weaker yen.
