The reasons the company gives

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

The two companies had held discussions because they believed that pursuing a corporate group with an industry-leading management platform and cutting-edge technological capabilities through the integration would contribute to enhancing corporate value and the interests of stakeholders. However, they came to recognize that it would be difficult to reach agreement on the various terms and conditions of the business integration.
