The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The反動 from ¥197 million in prior-period carryover revenue recognized in the same period of the previous fiscal year due to a change in the revenue recognition policy was a factor behind the decline in revenue. The ¥111 million increase in ZETA CX revenue partially offset this, but revenue declined by ¥86 million year on year, and operating profit was affected by the decline in revenue.
