The reasons the company gives

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

During the fiscal year, the Fibers business was sluggish in the materials and industrial supplies fields, while the textiles field was affected by the worsening situation in the Middle East and weak market conditions, and the apparel field experienced environmental and structural changes. In the Chemicals business, market conditions were weak in the performance chemicals field, while the Machinery business was affected by sluggish automobile sales in Europe.
