Results for the fiscal year

(Note) The Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition (ASBJ Statement No. 29, March 31, 2020) is applied from the beginning of the first quarter of FY2021.
2. Reasons for Revisions
In the Food segment, the market correction that followed extraordinary demand during the previous year due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic was larger than expected, becoming a factor that is stunting sales growth. Additionally, there is increasing risk that rising raw material prices and currency market fluctuations will constrain profits.
In light of these conditions, we revised the full-year consolidated earnings forecast for FY2021 announced in the Notice Concerning Recording Extraordinary Profit and Revisions to Financial Forecasts for the Fiscal Year Ending on March 31, 2022, which was released on September 10, 2021.
Financial forecasts indicated in these materials are based on information currently available to the Company and certain assumptions deemed to be reasonable. Actual financial results may change due to various factors.
