The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In the Video & IT business, the increase in profit was attributed to higher demand associated with Phase 2 of the GIGA School Initiative and strong performance by Pacific Tech Pte. Ltd. In the Robotics business, the shift toward higher-value-added products improved the gross profit margin. Reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses contributed at the company-wide level, while higher foreign exchange gains contributed to non-operating income. Factors supporting the expected increase in revenue and operating profit for the fiscal year ending March 2027 include the pursuit of synergies with acquired companies and growth in existing businesses. The expected decline in profit is attributed to lower non-operating income, specifically foreign exchange gains.
