  2. Backgrounds for Differences

The Group's revenue was better than the previous forecast, published on 9 May, due largely to the Architectural businesses in Europe and Automotive business in North America, where sales prices were higher than anticipated. Revenue was further boosted by the continued depreciation of Japanese Yen against other currencies. Operating profit was worse than forecast due to weak sales volume and unfavorable production efficiencies, including unfavorable levels of asset utilization. The profit before taxation was negatively impacted by increased exceptional costs, reflecting an impairment of goodwill arising during the final quarter that had not been forecasted. The profit for the period, and the profit attributable to owners of the parent were better than the previous forecast due to the recognition of a one-off increase in deferred tax asset balances in the U.K. following an improvement in profitability in that country.
