The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In 4Q, in addition to higher revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased due to more efficient advertising expenditure, the normalization of prior-year special factors such as personnel expenses, taxes and dues, and lower recruitment costs. Under the medium-term plan, growth initiatives include raising the selection criteria for partner temples, expanding existing temple sites, diversifying sales channels, reviewing product and pricing strategies, and launching new temple-related businesses.
