The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The Japan business was supported by solid sales to customers in the foodservice industry, increased adoption of seasonal campaign products and new products, the adoption of high-margin products, improved profitability of national-brand products, and higher utilization of production facilities. The U.S. business was affected by a decline in orders in the first quarter due to inventory adjustments by major customers. The dividend increase was described as a measure to enhance shareholder returns while taking into account medium-term growth investment and investment in human capital.
