「The most important issue for the Company to address is moving out of the red. Specifically, the Company will pursue self-help efforts such as cost reductions, including expense cuts, improve earnings through price revisions, and strengthen earnings power by expanding sales of higher-value-added, high-performance products. For businesses whose profitability has declined due to structural factors, the Company will pursue structural improvements, including consideration of reducing the scale of operations.」

It aims to return to profitability at an early stage and rebuild its earnings base and financial position through cost reductions, price revisions, expanded sales of high-performance products, scaling back low-profitability businesses, inventory reductions and cooperation with financial institutions.
