The reasons the company gives

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

In the Steward Services business, new offices and hospital projects opened, cost increases from contract renewals were reflected, and implementation of multi-AI agents progressed. In the Food Services business, expanded orders from new hotel chains lifted revenue, while investments in personnel, costs related to preparing new openings, and higher prices for ingredients, equipment and consumables weighed on profit. In the Space Production business, demand for security equipment for financial institutions remained firm.
