The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue benefited from foreign exchange movements, price revisions and higher sales volumes. Operating profit was weighed down by a ¥180 million impact from the change in the estimate for asbestos removal costs, as well as higher labor and personnel expenses. The overseas business returned to profitability due to a recovery in shipment volumes, increased sales of improvers and extract products in North America, and refunds of U.S. tariffs.
