Items this document does not state (9)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue declined due to the backlash from several large building projects reaching their peak construction phase in the previous year, a decline in the number and scale of property sales, and the transfer of the condominium development business. Operating profit was affected by lower revenue, while the decline in interim net income was limited by extraordinary gains, including gains on the sale of strategic shareholdings and a gain on the transfer of the condominium management business.
