Overview of Performance

Despite the impact of withdrawing from the food supermarket business, sales to the domestic foodservice industry remained solid, and the addition of Sankyo Shokutori to the group also contributed. Operating income increased due to higher gross profit and gains from withdrawing from the FSM business offsetting decreased gross margin at the Singapore subsidiary and increased transportation and packaging costs in existing businesses.
