Qualitative information regarding the quarterly financial results
(1) Explanation of operating results
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Japanese economy experienced a moderate recovery. Although the impact of U.S. trade policies was observed, particularly in the automobile industry, personal consumption remained resilient due to wage increases from the spring labor negotiations and policy support, and capital investment also remained firm. In the United States, while a slowdown in employment growth became evident and uncertainty persisted due to tariff effects, personal consumption and capital investment remained solid. In ASEAN countries, Indonesia saw a recovery in its economy as a series of government economic stimulus measures supported consumption. In Malaysia, robust private consumption and investment, along with a recovery in exports, underpinned growth. In Thailand, sluggish domestic demand continued, and the appreciation of the currency led to a slowdown in external demand, making the deceleration of the economy more pronounced.
Under these circumstances, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, domestic automobile production in Japan recovered from the decline caused by vehicle certification issues, but decreased year on year due to production reductions by some automakers. In ASEAN, production in Malaysia and Thailand showed signs of recovery, but production in Indonesia remained sluggish, resulting in a year-on-year decrease for the three ASEAN countries as a whole.
As a result, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net sales in Japan, our main market, were significantly affected by production decreases at certain automobile manufacturers. In ASEAN, although Indonesia performed well, both Thailand and Malaysia underperformed, resulting in a market share decline. Consequently, net sales were 86,141 million yen (down 6.4% YoY). In terms of profit, due to revenue from molds associated with the launch of new products, promotion of price pass-through, improvement in defect rates, and increased productivity, operating profit was 3,739 million yen (up 72.7% YoY), and ordinary profit was 4,982 million yen (up 48.1% YoY). In addition, profit attributable to owners of parent, despite recording business restructuring expenses of 456 million yen, increased to 3,873 million yen (up 52.6% YoY), resulting in decreased sales but increased profits.
Note: As the Group's segments for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consist of a single segment, the Automotive Parts
business, segment information is omitted.
(3) Explanation regarding forward-looking statements such as consolidated forecasts

Please note that any statements regarding forecasts or other forward-looking information contained in this document are based on
