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.The company cited stronger demand for resource recovery, higher plant utilization, increased sales volumes, higher selling prices for metals, and the expansion of the reuse and recycling and engineering businesses as reasons for the increases in revenue and profits. Investments to address rising costs and future demand also increased, but were more than offset by higher selling prices and other factors.
