The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Customer budgeting was delayed due to uncertainty over the outlook for the manufacturing industry, and projects were also reviewed, resulting in project acceptance being expected to be concentrated in the second half. The decline in gross profit was attributed to a temporary decrease in revenue per employee in the Solutions Business and higher cost of sales due to base-pay increases.
