  1. Overview of Operating Results and Others
    1. Overview of operating results for the period

      During the first nine months of this fiscal year, uncertainty in the economic outlook increased amid rising concerns about inflation due to soaring resource and energy prices arising from the situation in the Middle East.

      In the semiconductor industry, our primary market, demand for GPUs, high-bandwidth memory (HBM), and other advanced semiconductors remained strong, driven by increased investment in AI, leading to heightened capital expenditure by device makers.

      Under these circumstances, our consolidated net sales for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2026, totaled 169,539 million yen (up 0.4% year-on-year). By product segment, semiconductor-related products accounted for 124,664 million yen (down 6.7% year-on-year). Sales of other products accounted for 2,811 million yen (down 33.3% year-on-year) and services for 42,063 million yen (up 35.5% year-on-year).

      As for consolidated incomes during this period, we recorded an operating income of 78,191 million yen (down 1.4% year-on-year), an ordinary income of 80,449 million yen (up 6.7% year-on-year), and 56,823 million yen in net income attributable to owners of parent (up 7.8% year-on-year).

    2. Overview of financial position for the period

      ① Financial position

      Total assets at the end of the period amounted to 310,812 million yen, down 18,789 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This is mainly due to the 7,656 million-yen decrease in notes and accounts receivable-trade, and contract assets, the 6,060 million-yen decrease in cash and deposits, and the 4,073 million-yen decrease in work in process.

      Liabilities at the end of the period amounted to 85,322 million yen, down 34,379 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This is mainly due to the 20,798 million-yen decrease in income taxes payable and the 13,762 million-yen decrease in advances received.

      Total net assets, which consist of shareholders' equity, accumulated other comprehensive income, and subscription rights to shares, amounted to 225,489 million yen. The capital-to-asset ratio was 72.5%.

      ② Cash flows

      Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period amounted to 80,027 million yen, down 6,060 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. Following is the status of cash flows and their contributing factors during the nine-month period.

      Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to 36,823 million yen (down 17.3% year-on-year). This is mainly due to the fact that the sum of cash receipts, such as the 80,449 million yen in income before income taxes, exceeded the sum of cash payments, such as the 43,178 million yen spent for income taxes paid.

      Net cash used in investing activities amounted to 1,210 million yen (down 40.2% year-on-year). This is mainly due to the 905 million yen used in the purchase of property, plant and equipment and the 349 million yen used in payments for guarantee deposits.

      Net cash used in financing activities amounted to 43,169 million yen (up 75.8% year-on-year). This is mainly due to the 31,131 million yen used for cash dividends and the 12,003 million yen used in the purchase of treasury shares.

    We have not revised our forecast for the fiscal year ending June 2026 announced on January 30, 2026.

      (4) Notes to consolidated financial statements

      (Notes on information by business segment)

      Since the Group only has one business segment-the design, manufacture, and sale of inspection and measurement systems-we do not provide information by business segment.

      (Notes on significant changes in the amount of shareholders' equity)

      Pursuant to the resolution passed at the Board of Directors meeting held on August 7, 2025, we purchased 560,600 shares of treasury stock. During the first nine months of the year, treasury shares increased by 12,001 million yen, bringing the total to 12,977 million yen at the end of the period.

      We completed the share buyback pursuant to the above-mentioned resolution on December 15, 2025.

      (Notes on going concern assumption)

      None

      (Additional information)

      (Changes in presentation methods)

      (Change in items on consolidated statement of cash flows)

      From the third quarter of the current fiscal year, "Purchase of treasury shares", which was previously included in "Other" under "Cash flows from financing activities", has been presented as a separate line item due to its increased materiality. To reflect this change, we have restated our consolidated statement of cash flows for the first nine months of the previous fiscal year.

      As a result, the 27 million yen used in the purchase of treasury shares in the first nine months of the previous fiscal year, which was previously presented under "Other" in "Cash flows from financing activities", has been reclassified as (0) million yen under "Purchase of treasury shares" and (27) million yen under "Other" in "Cash flows from financing activities".
