Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Revenue increased due to higher sales in the M&T domestic products business, strong performance in the ES entertainment business, and the yen's depreciation. Profit decreased due to higher prices for components including memory, the impact of the closure of U.S. government agencies, higher fixed costs such as personnel expenses, restructuring costs, and the reversal of gains on the transfer of fixed assets recorded in the same period of the previous fiscal year.
