Because the recovery in hiring appetite among recruiting companies was slower than initially expected, revenue from the media business, the general segment of the recruitment business, the new-graduate media business and the IT staffing business fell below forecasts. Meanwhile, the middle-market segment of the recruitment business progressed ahead of forecast. The company also implemented group-wide cost controls, including efficient and effective advertising, but these measures did not fully offset the decline in revenue.
