The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The food sesame business posted higher sales, while the sesame oil business posted lower sales. Export sesame oil sales volumes declined, reflecting a backlash from the rush demand ahead of the implementation of U.S. tariffs in the same quarter of the previous year. On the profit side, gross profit increased due to lower sales volumes and improvements in cost per product unit, despite factors that increased manufacturing costs. Operating income was affected by higher R&D expenses and other costs, while advertising expenses declined following a review of the timing of expenditures.
