The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Profit declined from the previous fiscal year because the lengthening of construction schedules due to larger-scale projects limited progress in revenue, the decline in sales volume could not be fully offset by improved profitability, and equity-method investment gains decreased. PBR remained below 1x, and the company determined that its various initiatives were still insufficient.
