The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.

Reason for the revision

The full-year revenue forecast was revised upward due to the effect of the selling price revisions. However, the initial forecasts for operating profit, ordinary profit and net income attributable to owners of the parent were left unchanged because higher procurement costs for raw materials, products and other items, more active promotional activities and other measures, and the recognition of costs associated with production facility removal work are expected.

Details and amount of extraordinary loss

Costs associated with production facility removal work. Recognition will be deferred until the third-quarter consolidated accounting period or later, but there is no change in the expected full-year amount of the special loss. Amount: Not disclosed.

Dividend forecast revision

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.

In addition to the effect of the selling price revisions, profit exceeded forecast because the planned promotional expenses and special loss associated with production facility removal work were deferred due to factors including the suspension of orders resulting from the situation in the Middle East. For the full year, the revenue forecast was revised upward to reflect the effect of the selling price revisions, while the profit forecasts were left unchanged because higher procurement costs for raw materials, products and other items, more active promotional activities, and the recognition of costs associated with production facility removal work are expected.
