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

Higher sales volumes for core brands and new products, price revisions, the effects of proactive marketing investments, the effect of higher revenue, and foreign exchange movements contributed to increases in revenue and profit. Meanwhile, higher raw material, energy, and logistics costs, including those related to the situation in the Middle East, as well as marketing investments, weighed on profit.
