The reasons the company gives

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

The full-year earnings forecast was revised upward based on steady progress through the third quarter. In terms of actual results, the company cited Sansan's solid growth, Bill One's strong growth, increases in the number of contracts and monthly recurring revenue per contract, and declines in personnel expense and rent-to-revenue ratios. In the Eight business, B2B services grew, while adjusted operating profit declined due to the launch of new large-scale events.
