<Reasons for differences from the previous fiscal year of non-consolidated financial results>

The previous fiscal year (FY2020), there were substantial decrease of sales volume and decline of sales prices due to slumping demand in Japan and overseas caused by the spread of COVID-19. On the other hand, the current fiscal year (FY2021), net sales and profits significantly improved by significant expansion of the demand for our products, tighten of the supply-demand balance and soaring of the overseas markets.

These resulted in differences between the results of FY2020 and the results of FY2021.
