The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue and operating profit increased, driven by higher sales of organic EL materials and other factors. Although the company recorded an expense for a provision for litigation losses in preparation for a patent-related dispute involving an overseas consolidated subsidiary, interim net income attributable to owners of the parent exceeded the year-earlier period. The full-year earnings forecast was revised based on the progress of results during the interim consolidated accounting period.
