Items this document does not state (8)
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.The reasons given for the declines in revenue and profit include difficulties securing large orders and projects being pushed into a different period in the foundation business, delays in the acceptance inspection of a Linear Chuo Shinkansen project in the civil engineering products business, and deteriorating earnings at production subsidiaries due to lower production volumes. The forecast for higher revenue and profit in the next fiscal year assumes solid orders, projects shifted from the previous fiscal year, higher production volumes, and the effects of reorganizing the production structure.
