Items this document does not state (7)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The medical B2B business, domestic dental distribution business and Thai dental clinic operations increased revenue, while the media and platform business and cloud integration business remained sluggish. The increase in net purchases was the main factor behind the decline in operating profit, while lower personnel expenses and other expenses provided support. Foreign exchange losses due to currency fluctuations also contributed to the ordinary loss.
