Items this document does not state (8)
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.Revenue declined due to lower production volumes at customers in North America, lower sales of smart locks for new homes, and the reaction to the prior fiscal year's special demand for locker systems. Operating income was affected by lower revenue and higher labor costs, while rationalization improvements contributed positively. Ordinary income and net income increased due to the recognition of ¥837 million in foreign exchange gains resulting from the weaker yen and stronger Mexican peso, as well as ¥278 million in extraordinary income, including a gain on the liquidation of a Chinese subsidiary.
