The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Revenue from construction projects declined in the first half due to delays in upstream processes and adverse weather, among other factors, but ordinary profit was maintained at approximately the previous year's level through improvements in the gross profit margin, a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, and an increase in non-operating income. The downward revision to the full-year revenue forecast reflects delays in upstream processes and other factors, while the upward revision to the ordinary profit forecast reflects improvements in the gross profit margin and reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses, among other factors.
