The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The Company expanded production capacity for products serving growth markets and reorganized its business structure, while demand fluctuations affected existing customers in the automotive and steel industries, among others. In Ceramics & Materials, increases in sales and production volume had an impact; in Industrial Equipment, the impact came from foreign exchange movements and U.S. tariff policy; and in Tableware, the decline in sales was compounded by higher raw material prices and increased upfront costs for market development.
