Operating income rose 1.5% to 1,272 million yen, and ordinary income grew 10.4% to 2,767 million yen. Meanwhile, net income attributable to owners of parent for the quarter declined 34.0% to 2,922 million yen. The sales growth was mainly driven by solid performance in the food business, particularly in confectionery and powdered beverages. The chemical products segment saw slight growth, and the real estate segment recorded increased revenues and profits due to higher rental income.\n\n### Financial Condition and Dividend Status\nTotal assets stood at 100,238 million yen, up 16,912 million yen from the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, and net assets increased by 6,347 million yen to 61,260 million yen. However, the equity ratio declined to 61.1% from 65.9% at the end of the previous fiscal year.
