Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

In office equipment, increased sales of stationery-related products and consumables for character display equipment, together with stepped-up sales activities centered on new Letatwin products, contributed to higher revenue and earnings. In industrial equipment, the resilience of the non-residential markets in Europe and the United States, demand for mechanization driven by labor shortages, and strong sales of rebar tying machines and consumables contributed to higher revenue and earnings. HCR equipment posted lower revenue owing to a decline in wheelchair sales to China's rental market.
