Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Sales of light-shielding products and adhesive products for communications equipment, adhesive products for transportation equipment, and hard-coat products and light-shielding products for industrial equipment performed steadily, while sales of high-margin products also increased. Rush demand associated with price revisions made in response to the impact of the situation in the Middle East also contributed to earnings, while the downturn in the European automotive industry and the sluggish start-up of products for battery manufacturing processes were factors reducing performance.
