The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue increased due to higher orders for power tool components and the increase in yen-denominated amounts resulting from the weaker yen. Automated equipment was introduced at the plants in Japan and China, improving production efficiency. In Japan, the company is also working to improve processes, reduce the defect rate, shorten cycle times and cut expenses.
