  1. Operating results for the fiscal year under review

The Inter Action Group conducts business in three segments: Internet of things related works; environmental energy related works; and promotion business of Industry 4.0. The business environment in each segment is as described below.

In the Internet of things related works segment, we manufacture inspection illuminators and pupil lens modules used for quality inspections in the image sensor production process and sell them mainly to manufacturers of high-end image sensors.

Currently, in the image sensor market, there are a dozen or so manufacturers of image sensors, of which Japanese and Korean companies account for over 60% of the market share. Aside from these existing makers, there have recently been moves by Chinese manufacturers to enter the business. Judging from the trends of image sensor manufacturers, we anticipate that the image sensor market will continue to expand.

The market for image sensors tends to hinge on the manufacturing and selling situation of smartphones, as such devices currently account for about 60-70% of image sensor applications. Production and shipment of smartphones, in volume terms, are affected by the current stagnant demand for smartphones in some regions due to the Russia-Ukraine situation, combined with shortage of semiconductors and other parts and materials, a situation which has yet to improve. We anticipate that the market will recover with the easing of uncertainty arising from the social situation, and hence expect that stagnation in demand for smartphones will be temporary. Still, we will need to continue monitoring market developments in the period ahead.

The increasing number of image sensors (cameras) installed per smartphone and the growing popularity of smartphones equipped with multiple image sensors (cameras) in recent years means that image sensor manufacturers will probably need to continue increasing production capacity. Increasingly, smartphones are equipped with higher value-added image sensors (cameras), leading to increase in the percentage of high-end image sensor application.

In the short-term, demand for image sensors remains focused on conventional imaging devices that capture visible light in order to take photos and videos.

In the medium term, we anticipate the demand trend to shift from imaging to sensing needs, driving up demand for image sensors that can capture three-dimensional information needed for self-driving vehicles.

Specific devices envisaged are ToF (time-of-flight) sensors and LiDAR (light detection and ranging) sensors, which aim to capture three-dimensional information such as the distance between objects. Use of these sensors in smartphones is gaining momentum and a further increase in demand is anticipated with the development of various applications.

In the long term, we assume that usage will expand further along with such progresses as advancement of image sensor technology, development of the sensing area, and construction of 5G-related infrastructure, and anticipate that new demand will be generated, different from what we have seen in the past, resulting from industrial applications (machine-vision, surveillance cameras, drones, etc.), prevalence of IoT devices equipped with image sensors and other trends.

In the environmental energy related works segment, we manufacture and sell drying deodorizers used together with rotary presses (commercial printing presses) for large-volume printing and exhaust gas treatment systems for factories.

In the printing machinery industry, although new capital investment is diminishing due to the growing prevalence of information technologies, a certain number of rotary presses are replaced every year due to age- related degradation, and there is also demand for periodic maintenance. As there is minimal competition, the Inter Action Group is able to stably accommodate this demand at present. At present, customers' appetite for capital investment in new and large-scale projects is gradually beginning to recover in anticipation of a post- COVID-19 future.

In the promotion business of Industry 4.0 segment, we mainly manufacture precision vibration isolation systems for removing vibrations that are a hindrance in the production process for displays and sell the systems to display manufacturers. We also manufacture gear testing systems for investigating whether gears are of the shape designed and sell them to gear manufacturers. In addition, as new businesses for the Group, we are actively working on businesses related to FA (factory automation) image processing and laser processing equipment.
