The reasons the company gives

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

The effect of higher company-wide revenue exceeded investment in human capital of ¥115 million, the ¥56 million increase in advertising expenses and ¥2 million in other expenses. The main factors were a decrease in equity-method investment losses for ordinary profit, and the absence of impairment losses on investment securities and other items, together with ¥674.9 million in gains on the sale of investment securities, for net income.
