The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The company cited sluggish new-car sales, lower used-car profitability, and losses at stores brought into the group through M&A in its imported-car dealership business. In its used-car export-related business, it cited weak sales of major vehicle models, higher procurement costs, and congestion and higher costs in ocean transport. It also stated that personnel expenses, depreciation, and facility costs associated with M&A increased ahead of the related benefits.
