The reasons the company gives

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

In the fiscal year ended March 2026, net sales declined following the withdrawal from certain businesses, while operating profit increased due to higher sales of high-value-added, high-performance products, a review of unprofitable sales, price revisions and cost-reduction measures. Ordinary profit was affected by foreign exchange valuation gains on foreign-currency-denominated assets resulting from the weaker yen, while net income attributable to owners of the parent was affected by extraordinary gains, including gains on the sale of fixed assets and gains from debt forgiveness. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, the company assumes the establishment of a low-cost operating structure, expanded sales of high-value-added products, capital investment and new product development.
