Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Sales of rebar tying machines and consumables increased due to rising demand for mechanization in Europe and the United States and promotional activities, while sales of bathroom heating, ventilation and drying systems for replacement demand also increased. In contrast, office equipment sales declined due to weak market conditions and stagnant orders resulting from U.S. tariff measures and other factors, while HCR equipment sales declined due to lower sales to China's rental market and defects in new products in Japan.
