Business performance overview
Amid global economic uncertainties, Nippon Ceramic (Nippon Ceramic Co., Ltd.) contributed with steady sales of ADAS automotive safety products and sensor modules for lighting and industrial machinery, resulting in a slight increase in net sales. However, interim net income fell below the previous period due to liquidation gains from Kunshan Nicera Electronics Materials Co., Ltd. in the prior period. Ordinary income rose due to realized foreign exchange gains, among other factors.
