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.

The Vision Care business grew as a result of increased 1-Day supply, growth in the number of MELS members, and expanded domestic and overseas sales. The increase in gross profit from expanded 1-Day sales exceeded higher expenses for human resources investment, preparations to commence operations at a new plant, and additional amortization of goodwill, resulting in higher operating profit.
