The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue declined mainly due to the end of production at the Mobara Plant. The operating loss narrowed as a result of structural reforms, including reductions in plant expenses and personnel costs following the end of production at the Mobara Plant, as well as an increase in the sales mix of automotive products with high production efficiency. Net assets improved mainly due to the partial exercise of the 14th Stock Acquisition Rights and debt repayments.
