In overseas markets, orders received significantly increased year on year in North America and China, and also increased in Europe, South Korea, and Southeast Asia. Net sales increased in North America, China, Southeast Asia, and Taiwan, but decreased in Europe and South Korea.
In the energy devices equipment field, although orders received increased year on year due to acquiring orders for EV battery charge-discharge evaluation systems, net sales decreased due to the timing of recording large orders being postponed to the second quarter.
In the semiconductor equipment field, although testing demand was firm, both orders received and net sales decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2026.
As a result, in the equipment business on the whole, orders received increased 29.1% year on year to ¥20,341 million and net sales increased 15.7% year on year to ¥11,963 million.

In the after-sales service and engineering field, both orders received and net sales increased year on year as both preventative maintenance services and repair services were firm.
Turning to laboratory testing services and facility rentals, in laboratory testing services, both orders received and net sales decreased year on year due to the impact of investment restraint and changes in development plans in the automotive sector resulting from the slowdown in EV demand.
As a result, in the service business on the whole, orders received decreased 8.3% year on year to ¥2,077 million and net sales decreased 3.8% year on year to ¥1,763 million. On the profit front, despite progress in improving profitability by revising technical support fees in after-sales service, there was an operating loss of ¥74 million due to a decline in revenue from laboratory testing services.
