housing market saw a 13.7% year-over-year decline in new housing starts due to the rebound from rush applications before the revised Building Standards Act, but sales volume of ceramic exterior siding decreased by only 2.8%. The US market experienced mixed movements in new housing starts influenced by stable high housing prices and elevated interest rates. Net sales amounted to \u00a5109.295 billion (2.5% decrease YoY); however, operating income rose to \u00a56.274 billion (12.3% increase YoY), ordinary income to \u00a56.740 billion (8.3% increase YoY), and net income attributable to owners of parent for the quarter grew to \u00a54.547 billion (20.7% increase YoY), driven by price revisions in domestic and overseas exterior materials businesses and fixed cost reductions. The US subsidiary concluded operations for general-purpose residential exterior materials production in October 2025 and is progressing with business withdrawal.\n\n### Financial Position and Outlook\nAt the end of Q3, total assets stood at \u00a5170.706 billion, net assets at \u00a5120.515 billion, and the equity ratio increased by 0.6 points from the previous fiscal year-end, reaching 70.8%.
