The reasons the company gives

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

Revenue declined due to a transitional period between smart mobility-related projects, delays in starting projects for the healthcare industry, and the strategic withdrawal from low-profitability projects. In addition, a temporary increase in the mix of low-margin projects and upfront investments in hiring, training and education, and research and development reduced profit.
