The yen weakened beyond the assumed exchange rate, and revenue exceeded the initial forecast, mainly in Europe, China and other markets. From the second half onward, demand for capital investment is expected to remain firm, driven by strong demand for electronics-related equipment. While improvements in production operating rates and a decrease in inventory valuation losses are also expected to boost profit, uncertainty is expected to persist due to surging resource prices, inflation and heightened geopolitical risks.

The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.This was due to the yen weakening against the assumed exchange rate, revenue exceeding the initial forecast mainly in Europe and China, and expectations that demand for capital investment would remain firm against a backdrop of strong demand for electronics-related equipment. In addition, improvements in production operating rates and a decrease in inventory valuation losses are expected to boost profit.
