The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In Japan, higher sales volumes of snack foods, the effects of price and specification revisions, and improved productivity at the Setouchi Hiroshima Plant contributed to higher profit. Overseas, the consolidation of Hodo, Inc. as a subsidiary and foreign exchange effects contributed to higher revenue. Asia and Oceania saw higher profit, led by Greater China and Thailand, while North America and Europe saw lower profit due to rising costs and spending to strengthen the operating structure for growth in North America.
