Reason for the revision

Profitability is expected to deteriorate due to reduced international flight services from China resulting from worsening Japan-China relations, surging aviation fuel prices amid worsening conditions in the Middle East, reduced international flight services particularly to and from ASEAN, higher overseas production costs resulting from the weaker yen, and persistently high logistics costs.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Reduced international flight services from China due to worsening Japan-China relations have continued since last November. In addition, contracted revenue from the airport ground handling business and staff utilization are expected to decline due to surging aviation fuel prices amid worsening conditions in the Middle East and reduced international flight services, particularly to and from ASEAN. Profitability in the wholesale sector is also expected to deteriorate due to higher overseas production costs resulting from the weaker yen and persistently high logistics costs.
