Moreover, gross profit during Q3 rose to ¥386.0 billion (¥322.6 billion), and selling, general and administrative expenses totalled to ¥272.9 billion (¥245.9 billion).
 
The increased shipments with recovery of automobile related markets, and rapid rise in petrochemical market prices with recovery of demand considerably pushed the materials segment sales to ¥570.3 billion (¥438.4 billion), according to the company.
