1. Review of the previous year

. FY2024 Financial results

4

  • At the beginning of fiscal year, sales and profits are expected to be weighted towards the second half of the year, so measures are being taken to achieve the plan.
    • To reduce the impact of the weighting towards the second half of the year, particularly towards Q4, we adjusted with our customers for bringing forward the timing of sales, and so on.
    • Q4 (3 months) sales fell short of the plan due to the unavoidable impact of the postponement of sales to some customers, but operating profit generally achieved the plan.
    • Ordinary income and net profit for the period have been revised upwards compared to the Company's plan due to foreign exchange gains, exceeding the standard for disclosure (as disclosed on 13 May).
  • The semiconductor and photomask equipment business has seen strong growth in both orders and sales, partly thanks to new product launches.
    • Growth as a core business
    • Looking forward, sales of products for the advanced packaging market, on which the Group is focusing, are expected to increase in the future
  • Acquisition of own shares to be carried out in November 2023
    • Based on the progress of focused businesses, the share price level at that time was judged to be optimal for improving capital efficiency and shareholder returns.
  • Announcement of medium-term management plan in November last year
    • Details will be presented by our representative, Mr Sugimoto, at today's results briefing.
