What drove the change

Higher sales to existing customers such as supermarkets and drugstores
In the core processed foods business, price revisions and tighter margin control improved profit
The alcoholic beverages business sold more but earned less, due to higher shipping and other costs and spending on a new core IT system
Net income fell because the prior year included gains from selling cross-held shares
Operating cash flow shrank because of tax payments and increases in receivables and inventory

Things to watch

A shrinking domestic market as the population declines, weak consumption, and tougher competition
Purchase prices, wages and logistics costs keep rising, and repeated price hikes may make shoppers cut back further
Political and economic changes and currency swings in the countries where it has overseas subsidiaries
