The costs related to production and sales of our processed oil products such as utility, secondary ingredients, packaging materials, and distribution costs have been rising and placing downward pressure on earnings.
We have been working to improve profits by reducing costs but we have reached the limit of what we can do ourselves and we have determined that this price revision is necessary for stable supply in the future.
