The gross margin for 2023 was 18.8%, a decrease of 21.3 percentage points year-on-year, while the net profit margin was 6.4%, down 5.4 percentage points year-on-year, primarily due to the investment phase of the high-power power supply business [10][11] Business Segments - The power supply business is currently in an adjustment and layout phase, with high-power power supplies expected to become a new growth driver.
