  • This shows the Group's consolidated results.
  • During the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, restrictions on economic activities due to the impact of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) were eased, and the shift towards a new stage of coexistence with COVID-19 brought about a moderate recovery in business conditions.
    That said, the economic outlook remained uncertain due to a tense international situation, soaring resource prices, the impact from depreciation of the yen, and other factors.
  • Meanwhile, major manufacturing firms that are our main clients continued to invest in technological development, leading to a favorable environment for our orders.
  • As a result, net sales rose 14% year on year to ¥58,029 million, operating profit rose 42.1% to ¥7,584 million and profit attributable to owners of parent rose 43.9% to ¥5,107 million.
