The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Weak sales of new and existing core air-care products and existing clothing-care products, lower revenue in the core business, and higher raw material costs resulting from the situation in the Middle East caused revenue, operating profit and ordinary profit to fall below forecast. Meanwhile, interim net income and full-year net income are expected to exceed forecast because gains on the sale of investment securities were recorded as extraordinary income.
