Items this document does not state (5)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Orders received and net sales increased as the target markets, mainly AI semiconductors and satellite communications, expanded. Operating profit was weighed down by deteriorating profitability amid intensifying competition in the Chinese market, lower revenue from contract testing services, higher depreciation expenses, and increased SG&A expenses. The lower profit targets under the medium-term management plan reflect investment to expand production capacity in North America, delays in improving profitability in the Chinese market and contract testing services, and delays in the realization of the growth strategy's effects.
