The reasons the company gives

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

Amid intensifying competition and industry consolidation among semiconductor and electronic components trading companies, the two companies aim to enhance medium- to long-term corporate value by mutually leveraging their products, sales channels, overseas networks, EMS businesses, technological capabilities and human resources, expanding their scale and generating synergies. The parties also cite the ability to make decisions more quickly and in a more integrated manner through the acquisition of all shares and the conversion of Shinko Shoji Co.,Ltd. into a wholly owned subsidiary.
