The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.

Reason for the revision

Operating profit exceeded the forecast due to the higher sales mix of films for the high-margin medical sector and industrial materials, reductions in raw material and energy costs, expense controls, and the promotion of price revisions. Ordinary profit exceeded the forecast due to foreign exchange gains resulting from the weaker yen and the recognition of equity in earnings from investments accounted for under the equity method, among other factors. Although an extraordinary loss was recorded, net income also exceeded the forecast.

Details and amount of extraordinary loss

Consolidated: impairment loss of ¥905 million. Non-consolidated: impairment loss of ¥905 million and valuation loss on shares of affiliated companies of ¥674 million.

The reasons the company gives

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

Operating profit exceeded the forecast due to the higher sales mix of films for the high-margin medical sector and industrial materials, reductions in raw material and energy costs through consolidated production and other measures, expense controls, and the promotion of price revisions. Ordinary profit also exceeded the forecast, mainly due to foreign exchange gains resulting from the weaker yen. The dividend was increased based on the policy of stable profit returns and the Company's performance.
