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

Although sales volumes of artificial graphite electrodes and fine carbon products declined from forecast, the impact of exchange-rate differences resulting from the weaker yen and sales volumes of silicon carbide products, mainly for aircraft engine applications, exceeded forecast, driving up operating income and ordinary income.
