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 the Construction Machinery business, increased demand for public- and private-sector construction projects, and in the Industrial Equipment business, a recovery in capital investment demand and strengthened consultative sales contributed to higher sales and profits. The increase in gross profit was the main factor behind the rise in operating profit, while personnel expenses and other expenses also increased.
