structural reforms that the company announced this past March, the targeted blow-in date had been set for 2023. Since then, however, it was decided to move up the targeted blow-in date to December 2022 in order to accelerate the improved profitability that the company expects to realize as a result of its ongoing structural reforms. Going forward, JFE Steel will continue to constantly monitor and forecast steel demand as well as maintain a production system capable of adjusting flexibly and swiftly to changes in the external environment.
