The reasons the company gives

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

The plan was formulated using a backcasting approach to realize the company’s vision of what value it will provide in 2035 and how it will contribute to society. The company stated that the plan addresses challenges including changes in the mobility, semiconductor and carbon-neutrality markets, a shortage of new products and businesses, aging facilities, and increasing difficulty in securing employees due to Japan’s declining population.
