However, the economic outlook remains uncertain due to increased downside risks from the impact of U.S. trade policies, continued inflation, increasing cost of energy resulting from situation in the Middle East, and fluctuations in financial and capital markets.<\/p>\n<p>In the electronics device market, which is the Uyemura Group\u2019s main market, demand for servers, particularly in fields related to generative AI, continued to drive the market. In the car electronics industry, demand for on-vehicle power devices and Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS)-related products remained firm as automobile electrification and autonomous driving technology progressed.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, both sales and operating profit were higher than one year earlier because demand for our mainstay plating chemicals for package PWBs remained firm in the surface finishing materials business. <\/p>\n<p>Regarding the outlook for the domestic economy, although a recovery in personal consumption is expected against the backdrop of improved employment and income conditions, uncertainty is expected to persist due to geopolitical risks, fluctuations in financial markets, and developments in U.S. trade policy. <\/p>\n<p>In the electronic device market, although there are concerns that tightening memory supply and demand conditions may affect supplies to consumer sectors such as personal computers and smartphones, demand in AI-related fields is expected to continue expanding, particularly for advanced package substrates.<\/p>\n<p>Under such circumstances, the Group will respond swiftly and flexibly to changes in the market environment while advancing the establishment of a framework that enables the Group to maximize its collective strengths. At the same time, the Group will aim for continued growth by emphasizing innovation at the factory level.<\/p>\n<p>We ask for your continued support. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"date\">June 2026<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you for your continued support of Uyemura.
