The reasons the company gives

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

The increase in operating income for the fiscal year ended March 2026 was supported by higher sales volumes, including the launch of new products at the Thai subsidiary, as well as the realization of price adjustments and compensation. The expansion of the net loss attributable to the fiscal year was attributed to impairment losses associated with domestic restructuring and the suspension of production at the U.S. subsidiary, among other factors.
