The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The company explained that the decline in operating profit reflected the short-term impact of front-loaded AI-related investment. It also said recruitment expenses increased as hiring activity, which had been strategically restrained in the previous interim period, was normalized. Meanwhile, the company expects a recovery in the second half, driven by stronger customer-focused proposals and the ramp-up in orders for AI services.
