The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.At KeePer LABO, the number of vehicles visiting for car washes declined due to heavy rain and insufficient sunshine, mainly in the Kanto region, while steady demand for coating services drove up the average spend per vehicle. In the products and related business, contributions came from strong new-vehicle sales, initiatives for dealers launched several months ago, the acquisition of new non-automotive customers, and expanding demand for Mobile KeePer.
