The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Operating profit benefited from the introduction and expansion of high-value-added products, total cost reductions, and other factors contributing to higher profit. In contrast, raw material and fuel price variances and production volumes, structural reform expenses and other factors, and foreign exchange movements reduced profit. Net sales declined due to heightened tensions in the Middle East, decreases in the domestic fashion and sports sectors, and lower orders in the lifestyle-related materials and vehicle sectors.
