The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Sales increased across all businesses, and gross profit rose as the cost ratio improved slightly. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased, mainly due to higher personnel expenses. Net income declined because the Company recorded an extraordinary loss associated with a review of the pharmaceutical business plan.
