Items this document does not state (9)
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.In the power generation business, costs increased due to statutory inspections, an extended period during which the facilities could not operate at full capacity, a provision for processing costs related to plastic fuel inventories, and higher depreciation resulting from turbine renewal. In the plastics business, processing fees declined and personnel expenses increased in connection with the establishment of separate companies and other factors.
