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 company cited the expected postponement of some sales of proprietary products to the next fiscal year, delays in ramping up newly hired personnel for brokerage and ancillary services, and a slower-than-expected contribution to earnings from upfront investments. Although the company is also working to control and streamline indirect costs, it expects operating profit and below to fall short of the initial forecasts due to lower gross profit.
