The reasons the company gives

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

The primary factor was higher revenue, particularly growth in consulting revenue. The company also cited the reclassification of personnel and other selling, general and administrative expenses to cost of sales in line with higher revenue, cost reductions, and the capitalization of costs as software assets as factors contributing to the improvement in operating income.
