The business was discontinued at the end of May 2026 due to soaring customer acquisition costs under contracts and other factors. The human and financial resources allocated to it will be strategically shifted to the RPO field, a high-margin, recurring-revenue model. Although the number of high-margin products acquired increased, sales productivity did not improve as expected. The number of staffing placements finalized also declined in line with the decrease in staffing job openings acquired. To prioritize business growth, the Company made upfront investments, including launching operations in the Kansai area in addition to Kanto.
