The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The company explained that first-half revenue declined but profit increased due to balancing efforts to stabilize its earnings base and strengthen its development and operations structure, despite the effects of time. The standalone second-quarter decline in revenue and profit was attributed to the reaction to the anniversary event for “MementoMori” held in the immediately preceding quarter.
