The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In the Paper segment, although sales volume remained sluggish, the effects of price revisions implemented in response to soaring raw material and fuel prices emerged. In the Environment-Related segment, the Construction business and recycling of iron, aluminum and precious metals drove performance. Net income increased due to a rebound from the loss on disposal of fixed assets recorded in the year-earlier period and the recognition of subsidies for recycling-related plants.
