Mimaki Engineering announced on the 25th that it had acquired shares in クオリス and would make the company a wholly owned subsidiary. This is expected to enable Mimaki Engineering to leverage クオリス's engineering resources and development expertise.

While it is viewed as potentially improving profitability across the group, the specific timing and details of the integration plan remain subject to future announcements.
