The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The stated reasons were the steady growth of the platform and consulting businesses, primarily among large enterprises, productivity gains from the use of AI, and the absorption of increases in personnel expenses and development-related costs through higher revenue. The shift of the recognition timing for certain M&A advisory fees and brand marketing investments to the second half was also cited as a factor behind the upside in operating profit.
