Although unit sales of processed meat products declined as rising prices dampened personal consumption, sales of prepared foods, other processed products and meat showed signs of recovery following the introduction of new products and other measures.

These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Although unit sales of processed meat products declined as rising prices dampened personal consumption, sales of prepared foods, other processed products and meat recovered following the introduction of new products, and sales are expected to exceed the forecast. Meanwhile, higher raw material prices, particularly for imported beef, energy costs affected by the situation in the Middle East, and packaging material costs put pressure on profit. The full-year forecast was revised after taking into account performance for the interim consolidated accounting period, and the dividend was set at zero due to the substantial shortfall against the full-year earnings forecast.
