Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Demand for semiconductor manufacturing equipment was weak for high-function products. Demand from the oil refining and petrochemical industries was solid for plant construction and sales, domestic demand for sealing materials for infrastructure was solid for industrial products, and domestic demand was solid for automotive components. Some large projects were delayed in the building materials business.

Items this document does not state (1)
Revision to Earnings Forecast

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.

Amid heightened uncertainty due to the impact of U.S. trade policy and developments in the Middle East, demand for high-function products used in semiconductor manufacturing equipment remained weak. In the building materials business, some large projects were also delayed. For the next fiscal year, the company expects solid performance across all segments, led by the high-function products business, where demand related to semiconductors is expected to recover.
