The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In the active pharmaceutical ingredients segment, results were affected by the discontinuation of sales following the cessation of production by certain suppliers, customer purchase timing, changes in the sales mix, and increases in taxes and public dues and personnel expenses resulting from tax reforms. In the pharmaceuticals segment, results were affected by drug price revisions, new entries by competitors, an increase in the manufacturing cost ratio resulting from lower production volumes, and increases in personnel expenses and research and development expenses.
