The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In the part-time employment business, revenue declined as the company proceeded with changing the terms of, and reducing transactions involving, low-profitability engagements. In the real estate business, no settlements occurred in the purchase-and-resale business. Meanwhile, the career business benefited from higher revenue from Tenshoku Kaigi (job-review site) and Tenshoku Draft (job-matching service). Cost reductions resulted from a review of the organizational structure, adjustments to advertising, and lower variable costs accompanying the decline in revenue.
