Toshihiro Yamauchi
Thank you very much. This is Yamauchi speaking. Thank you very much for attending the Sumitomo Chemical conference call despite your busy schedule. I’d like to thank investors and analysts for your deep understanding and support to our management. Thank you very much for that.
Now let me start with a briefing of the financial results for fiscal year 2025 third quarter. Before explaining the details of our financial results, I would like to give a brief update on the status of profit and loss for the third quarter. Core operating income and net income attributable to owners of the parent for the third quarter significantly increased compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year. Core operating income was driven by Sumitomo Pharma’s strong sales and partial divestiture of the Asian business recorded a gain.
Core operating income of Essential & Green Materials increased significantly year-on-year with a gain on the partial sale of shares in Petro Rabigh and better trade terms. Agro & Life Solutions
