The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The business environment has changed significantly since the previous medium-term plan was formulated, including higher costs due to inflation and rising interest rates, accelerating AI adoption and digitalization, a longer transition period to a decarbonized society, and rising electricity demand accompanying the expansion of data center and semiconductor demand. In addition, the increasingly tense situation in the Middle East has made energy security a more important issue than ever.
