Items this document does not state (11)
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.Revenue increased due to growth in existing businesses, Miris becoming a consolidated subsidiary and the recognition of revenue from the smart glasses business. Operating profit declined due to higher sales promotion expenses, development costs, personnel expenses, investment in new businesses, and Miris's selling, general and administrative expenses and amortisation of goodwill.
