Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Revenue increased due to changes in package size, price revisions and sales promotions. Operating profit declined because of one-time costs for a campaign commemorating the change of corporate name and an inventory valuation loss following the decline in cocoa bean prices. Ordinary profit increased owing to higher dividend income and gains on the sale of investment securities, while net income declined because gains on the sale of investment securities were lower than in the previous year.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Revenue increased due to changes in package size and price revisions, among other factors, but operating profit declined because of one-time costs for a campaign commemorating the change of corporate name and an inventory valuation loss following the decline in cocoa bean prices. Ordinary profit increased owing to higher dividend income and gains on the sale of investment securities, while net income declined because gains on the sale of investment securities were lower than in the previous fiscal year. For the next fiscal year, the company expects operating profit to increase, reflecting the effect of the previous fiscal year's price revisions and the absence of the one-time costs incurred in that year.
