The company attributed the upward revision to improved performance in the fourth quarter, driven by better-than-expected raw material positions for livestock feed and lower-than-anticipated electricity and fuel costs.
The revision reflects stronger-than-expected profitability, with operating profit rising 25.0% and ordinary income increasing 26.8%. The increase in net profit and EPS signals improved operational efficiency and cost control, which could support higher dividend payouts.
