「As the group operates globally, its supply chain also extends worldwide. If temporary economic disruption or stagnation occurs due to general political or economic factors in countries or regions where the group's suppliers operate, or if a supplier-specific event causes sharp fluctuations in supply or surging prices, the group may face difficulties procuring parts and operating its factories. This could result in lower or delayed production of the group's products and affect its business results and financial position.」
