The reasons the company gives

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

In the machine tools-related business, higher earnings were driven by an increase in high-margin projects, improved profitability of pneumatic and hydraulic equipment, and orders for products for which inventory valuation losses had been recorded in prior fiscal years. In firearms, earnings were affected by the loss of revenue from specific initiative contracts in the previous fiscal year. In special-purpose vehicles, the factors were a decline in sales of road sweepers and difficulty procuring raw materials. In construction materials, the factors were budget execution for soundproof sashes and productivity improvements.
