The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In Japan, increased sales to food-service customers, seasonal products, growth in newly adopted products, and solid sales for home consumption drove higher revenue. The increase in sales to food-service customers and a review of low-margin products enabled the company to absorb increases in raw material prices, labor costs, transportation expenses, and other costs, resulting in higher operating profit. In the U.S., the acquisition of new customers and expansion at existing customers' stores drove sales growth, which offset increases in raw material prices and labor costs.
