Progress against full-year forecastNumber of stores and locationsAssumptions Underlying the Business OutlookRisk amount incorporated into the outlookMedium-term management plan targetsCapital expendituresKey points of the Q&A

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 strong event performance, growth in the Re就活 direct-recruiting and agent businesses, an increase in matching among higher-income candidates, and higher per-placement fees. Operating profit increased because the benefit from a ¥610 million increase in revenue exceeded the increases in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses.
