The reasons the company gives

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

In addition to strong sales of its core packaging machinery, improved profitability was supported by containing selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue through greater operational efficiency, including digital transformation initiatives. In the logistics packaging business, the increase in new inquiries resulting from stronger promotional activities using trade shows, as well as the end of goodwill amortization, also contributed to higher revenue and profit.
