The reasons the company gives

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

The decline in revenue was attributable to a decrease in existing social media post-monitoring projects and the negative impact of the end of a large-scale game customer support project that began operations in the previous fiscal year. The decline in operating profit was attributable to temporary duplication of labor costs associated with the consolidation of centers and upfront investments in AI and highly skilled personnel.
