Items this document does not state (8)
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.The main factors were solid demand, particularly in the domestic market, and higher revenue and an improved sales mix, which boosted profit. Although costs were recorded for measures to address defects, net profit increased due to the recognition of gains on the sale of investment securities. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, solid orders are expected, mainly in the gas and water sectors, while increases in raw material and component prices, labor costs and other expenses, as well as a decrease in extraordinary income, are anticipated.
