significant. The revenue decline was mainly due to the postponement of ¥6 bil of

revenue recognition following system issues. OPM declined as higher system-related

costs and lower revenue reduced fixed-cost absorption.

Earnings surprise: While results missed, the company maintained its full-year

guidance. Management expects the delayed revenue from the system issues to be

recovered in 2Q, making execution against the full-year plan the key focus.

Recommended action: The revenue and earnings miss, particularly on profit, is

negative. However, order momentum remains strong, led by AI-related projects. The

market might need greater confidence in the company's ability to deliver its full-year

guidance, and we expect the stock to react negatively in the near term.

Orders (1Q): +26% YoY. Large AI-related projects in both hardware and software

drove growth, while system services orders also expanded, particularly in the

financial services and retail sectors. Overall, order momentum remained solid,

supported by continued strength in AI-related demand.
