Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

Price revisions for paper and paperboard, higher sales volumes of paperboard and functional materials, increased revenue from overseas wholesale operations, complementary M&A, business-structure reforms at a German subsidiary, and control of selling, general and administrative expenses in domestic wholesale operations, among other factors. Statutory inspections and price competition in environmental raw materials, and tenant departures and higher interest expenses in real estate leasing, were factors behind lower revenue and profit.

The reasons the company gives

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

Profit increased due to price revisions for paper and paperboard, higher sales volumes of paperboard and functional materials, increased revenue from overseas wholesale operations, the effects of complementary M&A and business-structure reforms at a German subsidiary, and control of selling, general and administrative expenses in domestic wholesale operations. Conversely, statutory inspections and price competition in environmental raw materials, as well as tenant departures and higher interest expenses in real estate leasing, were factors behind lower revenue and profit.
