While the global economic outlook is projected to remain uncertain—due to persistently high resource and raw material prices and exchange rate volatility stemming from geopolitical instability, as well as the impact of US tariffs under the Trump administration—we expect a continued improvement in the business environment for our Group in fiscal 2025. This outlook is underpinned by continued investment in automation—including robotics—to address labor shortages, the expansion of data center infrastructure, and increased capital expenditures driven by growing demand for advanced semiconductors essential to generative AI.
We will work to improve profitability by further accelerating the initiatives set forth in our current medium-term management plan (FY2024–FY2026). These initiatives include maintaining high production capacity and quality, reinforcing our supply chain to ensure stable procurement of parts and materials, and enhancing productivity and operational efficiency through proactive IT investments. We will also strengthen our competitive edge by enhancing our ability to address customer challenges and improving responsiveness through integrated sales and development efforts.
Guided by our mission to contribute to technological innovation through motion control technology, the Group remains united in advancing initiatives that support the realization of a sustainable society and improving corporate values.
We kindly ask our shareholders for your continued and unwavering support.
June 2025
Akira Maruyama President and Representative Director
