Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Factors contributing to the increase in profit included firm domestic sales of agrochemicals, higher export proceeds due to the weaker yen, improved terms of trade for methionine, increased demand for semiconductor process materials, improved terms of trade at Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical Company, gains arising from differences in inventory valuation following market price increases for synthetic resins and other products, and increased sales of Orgovyx and Gemtesa at Sumitomo Pharma. Factors contributing to the decline in profit included higher fixed costs in ICT & Mobility Solutions, product mix effects in Advanced Medical Solutions, and higher research and development expenses at Sumitomo Pharma, among others.
