In addition to the decrease in the GP ratio due to the effects of exchange rate movements and changes to product composition, sales and administrative expenses (mainly R&D expenses) increased compared to the previous quarter. This brought the operating profit of non-consolidated net sales to ¥5,058million.
As a result, non-consolidated operating income, ordinary income, and net income were at an all-time high for two successive fiscal years, and reached 101.6%, 100.6% and 103.8% of the latest forecast respectively (¥23,900 million, ¥27,200 million and ¥20,200 million). |
