The reasons the company gives

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

Domestic sales, orthodontic appliances, aligners, IDB and bracket appliances, 3D printer-related products, and overseas sales increased. Higher orders from the United States and Australia, along with new orders from euro area countries, contributed to the results. Operating profit benefited from a lower SG&A-to-sales ratio, while ordinary profit benefited from higher non-operating income, including interest income and reversals of allowance for doubtful accounts, as well as lower foreign exchange losses. Meanwhile, the gross profit margin declined due to higher material and labor costs.
