I would like to explain the factors behind the changes in consolidated operating profit.
Although gross profit increased at Towa Pharmaceutical, etc. due to an increase in sales volume and unit price, consolidated operating profit decreased by approximately 140 million yen compared to the previous fiscal year due to an increase in the cost of sales ratio at Sunsho Pharmaceutical, etc., which led to a decrease in gross profit.

Outline of financial results for 2026/3 (Consolidated)
YoY change:
Net sales increased due to an increase in sales volume and unit prices at Towa
Pharmaceutical, etc. and sales growth in Europe for both BtoB and BtoC at Towa INT.
Operating profit decreased because a rise in the cost of sales ratio caused by a worsening business mix at Sunsho Pharmaceutical, etc. could not be sufficiently offset.
Progress rate for the plan: Both net sales and operating profit fell short of the plan due to a lower-than-expected increase in sales after the lifting of regulated shipments at Towa Pharmaceutical, etc. and a decline in the new application business at Sunsho Pharmaceutical, etc.
