The reasons the company gives

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

For the fiscal year ended March 2026, profit growth was driven by the acquisition of equipment projects globally, expansion of the services business centered on maintenance, growth in the CSV business, a review of the product mix and improvements in the cost ratio. Meanwhile, higher personnel and digital expenses pushed up selling, general and administrative expenses. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, the Company expects growth in the electronics business on continued semiconductor investment and further expansion of the CSV business, while factoring in lower chemical business sales and higher costs due to the situation in the Middle East, as well as the impact of the absence of large projects recorded in the previous fiscal year.
