During the fiscal year under review, business remained solid throughout the year, driven primarily by demand for client PCs and the education sector.
　In client PCs, we captured significant replacement demand in anticipation of the Windows 10 End of Support (EOS) in October 2025, which greatly drove business performance. Although EOS-related demand was expected to taper off in the second half, with a decline in orders anticipated particularly in the fourth quarter, we secured results on par with the previous year by completing deliveries during the fiscal year for customers who requested early delivery due to semiconductor shortages.
　In server products, despite a reactionary decline from large projects acquired in the previous year, we achieved results exceeding the previous year overall by strengthening integrated proposals combining PCs, cloud, network, and software. Additionally, we focused on strengthening our recurring business centered on cloud products offered through our subscription management portal "iKAZUCHI," as well as deepening market penetration for new tech vendors and original services, which contributed to business expansion. From the fourth quarter onward, global semiconductor demand increased mainly for AI-related data centers, resulting in price increases for PCs and servers and delivery schedule adjustments for some projects.
　By industry, in the corporate sector, we captured demand primarily from the service, retail, manufacturing, and healthcare industries. In the public sector, sales increased year-on-year due to the acquisition of projects for local governments. In the education sector, our meticulous sales activities that we have conducted nationwide proved successful in joint procurement projects for GIGA School Phase 2, and as a result of deepening collaboration with sales partners and vendors, we acquired numerous projects, leading to a significant increase in sales. In the consumer market, PC sales performed strongly in both retail store and e-commerce channels, achieving increased sales year-on-year.
 
　As a result, sales for this segment totaled 1,336,479 million yen (up 18.9% year-on-year), and operating income was 43,030 million yen (up 26.4% year-on-year).

In Machine tools division, steady orders continued from the strong shipbuilding and energy industries domestically, and demand recovery was also seen in the aircraft industry, which is a core market, resulting in increased orders year-on-year. Sales increased year-on-year, partly due to sales of large machines for the mold industry, and operating income also increased accordingly. In Automatic Machinery Division, both sales and operating income increased year-on-year due to recording sales from large projects.
 
　As a result, sales for this segment totaled 14,400 million yen (up 11.7% year-on-year), and operating income was 1,127 million yen (up 32.3% year-on-year).
