The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.For the fiscal year ending March 2027, the company expects continued and growing demand for HPC-related equipment, including equipment for generative AI, expansion of the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market, and an increase in the sales mix of high-value-added products. Net income attributable to owners of the parent for the fiscal year ending March 2026 declined year on year because costs related to measures addressing defects in certain products in the semiconductor manufacturing equipment segment were recorded as an extraordinary loss. The increase in the year-end dividend was based on an assumed profit excluding this extraordinary loss and took into account a consolidated dividend payout ratio of approximately 40%.
