Items this document does not state (11)
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.In Chemicals, higher methanol prices, profit contributions from 日本エイアンドエル, and steady performance in domestic and overseas trading contributed to higher profit. In Energy & Integrated Infrastructure, the newly consolidated Australian infrastructure development business and increased transactions in the US energy solutions business, among other factors, contributed to results. In contrast, Automotive was adversely affected by weak performance in the Australian used-car business, while Lifestyle Industries & Agribusiness was affected by a decline in overseas fertilizer sales volumes.
