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.

The paper business declined due to lower demand for graphic paper and falling selling prices in Europe, China and other markets. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, the company expects the paper business's decline to be offset by contributions from businesses acquired through M&A, a higher e-commerce sales mix and market share gains.
