The reasons the company gives

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

The company explained that the change in service launch timing was due to development and release preparations aimed at delivering a better product. It cited the difficulty of calculating revenue for the business scheduled for a new release, the difficulty of forecasting revenue trends amid rapidly changing market conditions, and the need to make flexible investment decisions as reasons for not disclosing its full-year earnings forecast. The operating loss was primarily due to higher costs for new development projects.
