Orders increased, driven by the acquisition of facility projects globally.
Both net sales and business profit increased, driven by improved profitability led by the growth of the service businesses centered on maintenance.
Orders and net sales both increased, mainly driven by municipal facility projects in North America.
Business profit increased, driven by improved profitability resulting from the expansion of the CSV business and optimization of product composition.

YoY change rate Orders: + 6.1%, Net Sales: + 5.5%, Business Profit: + 7.2%
Orders are expected to remain at a high level exceeding the previous fiscal year, supported by globally continued semiconductor investment.
Both net sales and business profit are expected to increase, driven by sales growth in both facilities and maintenance.
Despite Middle East geopolitical impacts in the chemicals business,
business profit is expected to increase due to continued CSV business expansion, even as net sales decline slightly.
* Orders, net sales, and business profit are based on continuing operations.

Overview of Results

Continuing Operations + Discontinued Operation Continuing Operations
Overview of results
Orders, net sales, and business profit all increased year on year, and the business profit margin also improved.
In particular, business profit and business profit margin exceeded our forecast, regardless of impact of discontinued operation.
Profit attributable to owners of parent decreased, reflecting the recognition of
¥19.9 billion in impairment losses on fixed assets, including goodwill, at Pentagon Technologies, which is classified as a discontinued operation.
ROE and ROIC also declined due to this impact. However, on a continuing
operations basis, both are showing an improving trend.

Electronics Results by Segment
Industry
Facilities
Orders increased mainly due to the acquisition of large-scale projects in Japan, South Korea, and North America.
Net sales decreased due to the absence of large-scale projects in China recorded in the previous fiscal year.
Recurring Contract-Based Services
Despite the completion of a certain contract and absence of one-time sales recorded in the previous fiscal year,
results remained in line with the previous year due to projects started in the prior year and high plant utilization.
Maintenance
Orders and net sales increased in all regions, primarily in Asia.
7
Continuing Operations
The results in Electronics Industry segment
Changes in orders and net sales from the previous fiscal year are as shown on this slide.
Against our forecast, on a continuing operations basis, orders exceeded our expectations, supported by strong maintenance demand across regions, as well as large-scale projects won in North America and South Korea in 4Q.
Net sales was impacted by slower-than-expected progress in the facilities business in Europe, North America and China.
However, recurring contract-based services performed well, supported by
customer's plant utilization.
As a result, the overall business mix improved, and together with tight control of SG&A expenses, business profit exceeded our forecast.

Assumptions in the Business Forecast for FY 03/2027
While economic growth is slowing in some regions due to tensions in the Middle East, overall growth is supported by the semiconductor market.
Japan Moderate recovery supported up by domestic demand and capital investment
Asia
North & South America
EMEA
Slowing growth due to economic slowdown in China and delayed recovery in capital investment Solid growth supported by infrastructure and digital-related investments
Slowing growth due to heightened geopolitical risks and energy market instability
Middle East impacts:
1H : Higher raw material/component costs and lower customer plant utilization mainly in chemicals business
2H : Improvement expected
Estimated impact of the tensions in the Middle East
16
Assumptions in the business forecast for FY 03/2027
At present, there are concerns over the impact of the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, and economic growth is expected to slow in Europe and the Middle East.
Especially, we are closely monitoring our chemicals business, which is affected by the procurement of raw materials such as naphtha as well as by operating situations of a wide range of customers.
At this stage, it is difficult to quantify the exact impact.
However, our forecast incorporates certain level of impact, assuming higher raw material prices and weaker demand for chemicals in the first half.
However, the semiconductor market is expected to grow steadily, supported by continued data center investment driven by demand for AI-related semiconductors, as well as expanding demand for AI-enabled devices.
Please note that these assumptions do not factor in the continuation of similar conditions into the second half.
We also do not assume supply disruptions of our results due to shortages of raw materials or components.
Depending on how the situation evolves, there is a possibility the impact could increase further.

Overview of business forecast
Foreign exchange rates are assumed to be in line with the levels of the previous fiscal year.
We expect orders, net sales, and business profit all to increase, aiming for continued growth.
In 1Q, business profit is expected to remain in line with the previous fiscal year. This is because Middle East geopolitical impacts are mainly reflected in the first half, with profit expected to increase in the second half.

The forecast in Electronics Industry segment
Orders are expected to exceed the high level of the previous fiscal year estimating continued global acquisition of large-scale facility projects. Growth is expected in Japan, North America, and China.
Net sales are expected to increase, reflecting progress in large-scale facility projects as well as higher maintenance sales.
Business profit is also expected to increase, supported by higher facilities business sales.
As for business profit margin, it is expected to be slightly lower than the previous fiscal year. This reflects higher costs from Middle East geopolitical impacts, as well as a rebound from the strong performance in the recurring contract-based services business, which benefited from improved facility utilization.
