Items this document does not state (17)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Higher production of electrification components in China, an increase in newly ordered vehicle models, rationalization measures, workforce optimization and fixed-cost reductions contributed to higher revenue and profit. In Thailand, revenue and profit declined due to production cuts by major customers. The company cited its expectation of continued growth in the electrification business, while production cuts by major customers, mainly overseas, are expected to continue and the outlook remains uncertain, as the reason for leaving the full-year forecast unchanged.
