The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue from physician career support increased as the number of full-time physician placements grew, while revenue from pharmaceutical information services, healthcare institution information services, medical supplies sales, and marriage agency services declined. Operating profit and profit before tax benefited from higher revenue, lower promotional expenses such as PR services, the completion of costs for establishing a BPO center for local governments, interest income received on financial assets, and foreign exchange gains, among other factors.
