The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Revenue was flat because the Marketplace Services and New Services segments exceeded the prior-year level, while Platform Services fell below it. Operating profit declined because total costs increased to 103% of the prior-year level as investment expanded, primarily in the New Services segment. Profit after tax increased due to the impact of adjustments to income taxes.
