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.The recovery in hiring appetite among companies recruiting staff was delayed, and net sales in media information services, recruitment services, graduate recruitment media, graduate recruitment services and fixed-term temporary staffing in IT fell short of the earnings forecast. Costs were contained through efficient and effective advertising and other measures, but this did not offset the decline in net sales. For the fiscal year ending September 2027, companies are expected to remain cautious about recruitment activity, while a recovery in the market in the second half and stronger human capital are anticipated.
