Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance
Higher demand and earlier order timing, growth in functional nonwoven-related products, the boost to overseas net sales from the weaker yen, and profitability improvements including price revisions resulted in higher net sales and profits. This was partly offset by the impact of higher raw material and fuel prices and increased depreciation expenses.

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.Some customers in the semiconductor and display-related businesses and the toner business increased demand and brought forward orders, while functional nonwoven-related products in the functional sheet business also grew. Profitability improvements, including price revisions, and the boost to overseas net sales from the weaker yen also contributed. The full-year forecast was revised because results through the interim period had progressed ahead of expectations.
