Risks identified by the company
Uncertainty in the global automotive market arising from energy policy, trade policy, the situation in the Middle East, and other factors
Risk of declining market share due to intensifying price competition and an increase in the number of market participants
Matching technologies in new fields to market needs and making the necessary capital investments
Impact of foreign exchange rates and tariffs
Recurrence of serious incidents, including system deficiencies, at the Thailand plant

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Under the previous mid-term management plan, both revenue and operating profit are expected to fall short of target. At the same time, the company expects the market for automotive printed wiring boards, centered on HDI, to expand, along with market opportunities in new fields. The company identifies insufficient sales growth, rising personnel costs, the slowdown in the EV market, and insufficient order volumes at its new plant in Thailand as key challenges.
