Promoting the Installation of Ultrasonic Meters for LP Gas

「In terms of profit, although costs increased due to investment for the future, including the promotion of ultrasonic meter installations for LP gas to improve safety and operating efficiency and higher depreciation expenses resulting from the acquisition of large tank trucks to strengthen logistics, profit increased as the number of customers grew through stronger sales activities.」

「Segment profit fell below the same period of the previous year, affected by efforts to install ultrasonic meters for LP gas to improve safety and operating efficiency, higher depreciation expenses from acquiring large bulk tankers to strengthen logistics, and higher customer acquisition costs and personnel expenses resulting from intensifying competition.」
