Items this document does not state (12)
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 recovery in demand for automotive and industrial applications and optical films for large-screen televisions, increased demand for components for office automation equipment associated with working and studying from home, and higher sales volumes of high-value-added products contributed to results. Meanwhile, the hotel business remained sluggish due to the impact of COVID-19. Higher crude oil and naphtha prices, the semiconductor shortage and soaring lumber prices were cited as factors in the revision of the full-year forecast and as risks.
