The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document.

Reason for the revision

Net sales exceeded the previous forecast due to increased sales in the industrial rubber business and the medical and hygiene rubber business. Operating income exceeded the forecast due to increased sales and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, although cost of sales increased as a result of higher purchase prices, preparation costs for the launch of new mass-production products, and equipment and personnel expenses to strengthen production capacity. Ordinary income fell below the forecast due to increased non-operating expenses, including foreign exchange losses and compensation payments, while interim net income fell below the forecast due to extraordinary losses, including losses on the disposal of fixed assets, and higher tax expenses.

Details and amount of extraordinary loss

Extraordinary losses, including losses on the disposal of fixed assets. No specific amount was stated.
