Items this document does not state (10)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In continuing operations, higher selling prices resulting from appropriate pricing, cost reductions, and profit control for wholesale products contributed to results. For consolidated results overall, the termination of the exclusive distribution agreement for the Airdog series was the primary cause of the decline in revenue and profit. The company explained that a weaker yen and higher procurement prices for key components, including semiconductors, will present headwinds to profit going forward.
