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.The Business Communication segment continued to capture demand for SMS-related services, while the Automotive Platform segment saw an increase in the number of paid accounts. The Auto Services segment reported lower revenue due to the reversal of the impact of high-priced vehicle sales in the year-earlier period, while net income for the second quarter alone declined due to the reversal of the impact of deferred tax assets recognized in the year-earlier period and the recognition of an extraordinary loss.
