The full-year ordinary profit forecast was revised upward from ¥3.2 billion to ¥4.3 billion, and the year-end dividend was increased from ¥55 to ¥80. Second-half profit is expected to decline year on year to ¥1.62 billion, reflecting progress on orders in hand and factors related to data centers in Malaysia.
