Looking ahead to the NB market in 2025, we anticipate a NB replacement cycle due to 1)
Microsoft's Windows 10 will no longer receive support updates or free software updates, starting in 2025'Q4, and 2) a well-prepared AI PC supply chain. In fact, such replacement cycle already started in the Japanese market in 2024, and the growth trend of the demand is expected to continue. General market research institutions view the market positively, predict moderate market growth. With this, we are confident in driving an increase in operational efficiency.
