Items this document does not state (17)
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.Revenue increased mainly because sales of gelatin and collagen peptides remained firm in North America. Although profitability declined slightly from the previous fiscal year, it remained within the range assumed in the initial forecast. In non-operating income and expenses, the foreign exchange loss recorded in the previous fiscal year turned into a foreign exchange gain.
