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 decline in revenue and earnings in the fiscal year ended May 2026 was primarily attributable to sluggish sales of products to domestic customers in the IoT-related business and weak sales of precision vibration isolation systems and gear testers in the Industry 4.0 promotion business. In the fiscal year ending May 2027, performance is expected to be driven by the recognition of revenue from large orders and additional orders from major overseas customers.
