Overview of results
The IT infrastructure business saw steady growth in cloud infrastructure and zero-trust security, while large-scale projects in the virtual desktop segment declined, resulting in a substantial year-over-year drop in revenue. Introduction of new products such as Edge AI Array and SapiaBox strengthens the product lineup, and business expansion via M&A and partnerships progressed. Foreign exchange losses occurred, but gains from sale of investment securities were recorded as non-operating income. The full-year forecast remains unchanged. Per-share metrics are disclosed after accounting for the stock split.
Impact on shareholders and outlook
The interim-end of equity ratio improved to 20.6%. Dividend track record shows 7 yen at 2Q end, with a full-year forecast of 15 yen (split-adjusted), indicating continued shareholder returns. In the longer term, with AI infrastructure demand growth and heightened security needs, the company aims to strengthen product competitiveness and achieve profit growth as a value-creation-oriented strategy. Attention is needed for exchange rate risk and potential pullback from large-scale projects.
