The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Sales volume declined as the Company tightened inventory management in response to temporary concerns about raw-material procurement resulting from heightened tensions in the Middle East. Meanwhile, profits were boosted by price revisions implemented in the second quarter to address higher costs for raw materials, fuel and other items, as well as the impact of inventory issued before raw-material and fuel prices increased. The full-year forecast remains unchanged because uncertainty about the outlook resulting from the situation in the Middle East continues.
