The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The consolidated subsidiary SALES GO failed to win a major contract because the parties could not agree on pricing and other terms; mid-sized and larger customers prioritized support for enhanced security; and the timing of cloud implementations was adjusted due to difficulties procuring servers and other hardware.
