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.Interim results exceeded the previously announced figures due to product price revisions in response to higher crude oil and naphtha prices, increased demand for high-value-added products, particularly semiconductor- and electronic component-related materials, and higher sales volumes. The full-year forecast was revised upward because strong performance by high-value-added products is expected to continue in the second half. The decline in interim net income attributable to owners of the parent was mainly due to the absence of the tax benefit, including income taxes and deferred income taxes, recorded in the year-earlier period.
