The reasons the company gives

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

Based on the findings of the special investigation committee and other information, the company made retrospective restatements to correct inappropriate accounting treatment and errors in prior fiscal years. The impairment losses for the fiscal year ended March 2026 were attributable to excess capacity in the consumer electronics business, price competition in the Chinese market, slowing growth in the EV market and lower order volumes in the automotive business, and the continued low profitability of the businesses. Going forward, the company plans to advance portfolio management, structural reforms and a shift of management resources to growth areas.
