Items this document does not state (13)
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.Performance was driven by strong growth in the Business Communications business and solid demand for SMS-related services. The Auto Service business posted lower revenue because it replaced its inventory with lower-priced vehicles while prioritizing gross margin improvement and expansion of its vehicle inspection customer base. The dividend increase and revision to the shareholder benefit program are intended to prioritize long-term shareholders and balance fair profit returns with the level of returns for shareholders who continue to hold their shares.
