The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.To concentrate capital investment and human resources on strategic products, including growth businesses and new and developing businesses, and achieve sustained sales growth accompanied by profitability, enhance corporate value over the medium to long term, and transform the Company into a highly profitable, leaner earnings structure. The Company will exit the offset ink and chitosan businesses, where demand continues to decline, and scale back product groups for which future market expansion or profitability improvement is not expected.
