Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Revenue increased due to higher sales volumes of electrode-material-related products, which captured demand in Japan and overseas, as well as firm demand for aircraft engine applications. Operating profit declined due to higher depreciation and amortization and other factors, higher manufacturing costs, and lower profitability against the backdrop of U.S. trade policies and other factors. Profitability in the other businesses improved through manufacturing cost reductions and sales at appropriate prices.
