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.

Results were strong due to the consolidation effects of Ms.ID and ミツボシコーポレーション, health-related products and kitchen equipment-related services, accessories for sports shoes in Vietnam, and the ODM and OEM businesses. Operating income benefited from an improvement in gross profit, while personnel expenses and Ms.ID's selling-related expenses increased.
