The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

This was due to rising inflation in the United States, higher construction material prices resulting from the impact of the situation in the Middle East, increases in logistics and other costs, and higher construction costs resulting from the sharp increase in demand for large-scale construction projects in and around Texas. The construction schedule was reassessed.
