Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

In the Chemicals Business, orders increased for hydrochloric acid for the electronics industry, sodium hypochlorite for water and sewage treatment, aluminum compounds for water treatment, activated carbon for flue gas and wastewater treatment, and spot and new projects. Meanwhile, transactions involving caustic soda declined due to lower sales volumes. In the Functional Materials Business, orders increased for new overseas packaging-related equipment projects, composite films for food packaging, resin driven by special demand and market-share gains, mechanical and equipment installation work, and flue-gas treatment equipment. In the Other Businesses, increased transactions by domestic consolidated subsidiaries and strong sales by overseas consolidated subsidiaries contributed to higher profit.
