Нэмж хэлэхэд, at the earnings presentation, Lixil Group President and CEO Kinya Seto was asked by reporters how he sees the current real estate situation in the Chinese business, and his statement was as follows:

The most number of price transmissions in the Americas business. Дахин, competitors are doing the same, so I don’t think price pass-through itself will affect demand. Гэсэн хэдий ч, Lixil Americas’ faucet business is the weakest of all the international businesses, but the ceramics business in the Americas is very strong. We want to strengthen our faucet business, especially for showers. Үүнтэй холбогдуулан, we are able to use zinc materials. And our competitors are currently focused on brass and copper, which can improve our cost advantage. As for ceramics, I think the optimization of prices will be done in much the same way as the others. Үүний зэрэгцээ, I believe the real estate market may be affected by the increase in mortgage rates, but this effect will not have an immediate effect. Нэмж хэлэхэд, there is currently a large demand for renovations and improved improvements in the US. If there is a bad situation in the real estate market, does it seriously affect our business? We do not believe this is necessarily the case. At this point, based on the orders received, we think the situation has been relatively stable so far. Мэдээжийн хэрэг, regarding the future, now that the U.S. is raising interest rates more and more often, this change cannot be foreseen. As for the China business, I think there are still risks, so we are trying to reduce the size of each business unit by moving from engineering projects to retail and from engineering projects to e-commerce. This will be a resilient result of the transition, although it may not show bright results in the short term. Meanwhile, Grohe’s China market business is performing well. I think Grohe has been recognized by end users as a good product and brand in the China market, and the design and brand recognition are spreading. Нөгөө талаар, American Standard brand products, which have been relatively strong in the original engineering business, are struggling a bit.
