The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Global Information,Inc. determined that becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of 株式会社ユーザーベース would enable it to leverage 株式会社ユーザーベース's sales infrastructure, economic information platform, expert network, content planning capabilities, and AI and product development capabilities to diversify sales channels, strengthen its outsourced research business, build new information services, and enhance corporate value. The reduction in the costs of maintaining its listing following the delisting was also cited as a reason.
