Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

The business environment remains challenging due to higher energy and raw material prices resulting from the weaker yen and heightened tensions in the Middle East, unfavorable weather, consumers' tendency to economize amid rising consumer prices, and reductions in product inventories and planned production. The dyeing and processing business reported higher revenue on increased knitwear orders and other factors, but posted an operating loss due to higher raw material prices and other factors. The product sales business reported lower revenue and profit due to the recognition of an allowance for doubtful accounts and other factors. The real estate business reported higher revenue and profit. Net profit increased due to subsidy income and gains on sales of investment securities, among other factors.
