The reasons the company gives

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

The reasons given for revising the full-year forecasts were that demand had remained strong and exceeded expectations, the yen had been weaker than assumed, and the latest market outlook had been reflected. The increase in interim revenue was attributed to solid performance by hydraulic equipment for automobiles and construction machinery, while the decline in operating profit was attributed to the absence of the gain on bargain purchase arising from the full acquisition of Chita Kogyo Co., Ltd. in the previous year.
