Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Revenue increased due to a stable supply enabled by securing raw materials and alternative sourcing, firm sales volumes, expanded sales and product price revisions. The effects of cost reductions, including higher revenue, alternative raw materials and a review of production processes, absorbed the increase in raw material prices and logistics costs, resulting in higher operating income and ordinary income, while the recognition of impairment losses reduced net income.
