The reasons the company gives

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

The decrease in operating profit was due to accelerated research and development activities related to new product development and the global optimization of the Company's products, higher personnel expenses resulting from increased salary levels, and higher outsourcing expenses related to the exploration of new businesses. The dividend forecast was raised to express appreciation to shareholders as the Company reaches its 25th anniversary as a medical device manufacturer.
