  4. Qualitative Information on the First Half Results

Business Performance

In the first half of the fiscal year under review, although geopolitical risks, including the situation in the Middle East, continued, capital investment demand remained strong, particularly in data center- and semiconductor-related markets driven by AI-related investments. In addition, demand for automation in the general industry remained steady.

In terms of our group's business performance in this environment, despite the impact resulting from the new ERP system implemented to strengthen our management foundation, revenue increased year on year, as demand expanded mainly in the data center- and semiconductor-related markets and sales grew, particularly in the Motion Control segment. On the other hand, operating profit decreased year on year due to the impact of the new ERP system implementation on production and shipments, increased indirect expenses, and the temporary expenses related to business structural reforms in Europe.

The business performance of the first half of fiscal 2026 is as follows.
