Items this document does not state (10)
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.Snowfall was lower than usual, reducing snow-removal-related revenue, while the earlier-than-expected resumption of construction caused March revenue to exceed assumptions. Operating income was also affected by higher personnel and recruitment-related expenses associated with hiring, as well as nonrecurring costs incurred to establish the necessary organizational structure. Orders received and the order backlog increased as a result of winning large-scale projects and actively pursuing orders ahead of schedule in light of the situation in the Middle East and the House of Representatives election.
