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.Revenue increased due to the contribution from newly opened hotels, while the decline in operating profit reflected fewer Chinese guests at existing operating hotels, weaker demand following the Kansai-Osaka Expo, higher variable rents and operating expenses, and the accelerated payment of costs related to new openings. The decrease in ordinary profit was attributed to lower insurance proceeds, while the decrease in net profit was attributed to the recognition of an adjustment loss on income taxes due to the reversal of deferred tax assets.
