Revised forecast
Fiscal year ending February 2027 · Second quarter (interim period) and full yearPrevious forecast published 10 April 2026 (corrected on 15 April 2026)The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.
Net sales are expected to exceed the initial plan for the period, driven by the transfer of higher costs for raw materials, inks and solvents to selling prices, increased sales of paper-related products and top seals, orders brought forward due to supply concerns, and increased workloads resulting from expanding demand in the semiconductor and electronic components markets. In addition to higher sales, operating profit benefited from improved production efficiency, cost-reduction measures such as reduced ink consumption, and margin improvement resulting from changes in the product mix in the IT and industrial materials fields.

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 transfer of higher costs for raw materials, inks and solvents to selling prices, increased sales of paper-related products and top seals, orders brought forward due to supply concerns, and increased workloads resulting from expanding demand in the semiconductor and electronic components markets contributed to higher sales. On the profit side, improved production efficiency, reduced ink consumption, and margin improvement resulting from changes in the product mix in the IT and industrial materials fields contributed to earnings. Orders from the semiconductor and electronic components markets are expected to remain firm in the second half, and the Company plans to continue improving production efficiency and diversifying its procurement sources.
