The reasons the company gives

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

The Bearings and Other segment reported higher revenue due to a gradual recovery in the aftermarket and the weaker yen, while profit increased as a result of improved selling prices and the effects of structural reforms. CVJ Axles reported higher revenue due to foreign exchange effects, despite the impact of weak performance and production cuts at Japanese automakers in China and the completion of mass-production projects in the Americas and Europe. Profit increased as a result of improved selling prices, lower variable costs from procurement reforms and the effects of structural reforms. Consolidated operating profit benefited from lower material costs, selling price levels, the effects of structural reforms and foreign exchange, while personnel expenses, volume and other factors, and tariff impacts weighed on profit.
