The reasons the company gives

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

This reflects the progress made under the current plan and changes in the business environment. While the quantitative targets of the previous medium-term management plan and the long-term management strategy were achieved ahead of schedule, the business environment has become more challenging due to rising prices, labor shortages and higher interest rates. The Group therefore aims to accelerate the execution of its initiatives and achieve further profit growth.
