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 Fiber business, performance benefited from expanded sales of functional yarns and fabrics for innerwear, steady fabric exports to the United States, contributions from the triacetate fiber business, and the withdrawal from unprofitable businesses. In the Industrial Products business, profit declined due to changes in distribution channels for certain semiconductor-related transactions, US restrictions on semiconductor exports to China, inventory write-downs, and a decline in domestic hobby-related transactions.
