For net sales, although sales increases in the Robotics and Financial Services Businesses were achieved, the Motorcycles and Marine Products Businesses within the Land Mobility Business saw decreases in sales volumes due to the effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a decline in sales overall. Operating income declined overall due to factors such as the impact of foreign exchange rates and decreases in operation rates due to the temporary closures of factory operations in each country.
