The reasons the company gives

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

Selling prices declined as steel market conditions deteriorated, and the decline in selling prices exceeded the decline in ferrous scrap prices, narrowing the metal spread. Meanwhile, sales volume increased as production and orders returned to normal following accident-related recovery efforts.
