Reason for the revision

For the interim period, operating income and ordinary income fell below forecast due to higher raw material and energy prices and increased personnel expenses, while interim net income also fell below forecast due to extraordinary losses including litigation losses. For the full year, the company expects construction plans to be cancelled or postponed or reduced in scale due to labor shortages, soaring construction costs and higher interest rates, as well as sluggish product sales and further increases in raw material and energy prices.

The reasons the company gives

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

For the interim period, operating income and ordinary income fell below forecast due to higher raw material and energy prices and increased personnel expenses resulting from soaring prices against the backdrop of escalating and prolonged tensions in the Middle East, while interim net income also fell below forecast due to extraordinary losses including litigation losses. For the full year, construction plans are expected to be cancelled or postponed or reduced in scale due to labor shortages, soaring construction costs and higher interest rates, while sales of “Asloc” for general construction and extruded cement products for residential construction are expected to remain sluggish. Further increases in raw material and energy prices are also expected to weigh on earnings.
