The reasons the company gives

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

The main reason for the delay in the start of commercial operations is the postponement of the land purchase. The increase in investment reflects higher construction costs, which rose more than anticipated due to increases in the prices of resources such as oil-related products and copper, higher material costs resulting from the weaker yen, and growing construction demand in western Japan.
