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.Against a backdrop of tight supply and rising prices for general-purpose memory due to expanding demand for generative AI, the Company captured customer demand through inventory sales and additional procurement. Profit margins also improved through the sale of memory-related inventory purchased by the end of the previous fiscal year, while the effects of M&A involving ブレイン, インテグ and 富士電工, among others, boosted results. The full-year forecast was calculated after cautiously incorporating trends in the memory market and prices, and assuming that the contribution from inventory sales and other factors in the first quarter would be limited from the second quarter onward.
