Items this document does not state (13)
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 increased due to organic growth at existing hospitals and the effects of the acquisitions of Asuka Medical, See, Cartech, Meditrix and North One. Although amortization of goodwill and personnel expenses increased in connection with the M&A, operating income increased due to the effects of greater operating efficiency through group management, cost synergies and the expansion of medical equipment.
