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.

During the fiscal year, orders from the automotive-related sector, a major source of demand, were at the previous year's level. Against a backdrop of persistently high raw material and fuel prices, the company worked to reduce costs and reflect these increases in selling prices. For the next fiscal year, selling price increases and higher sales volumes are expected, while market conditions for raw materials and fuel, higher fixed costs and other factors are expected to weigh on profit.
