The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue declined because the company proceeded with changing the terms of, and reducing transactions for, low-profitability projects in the part-time staffing business, while some major customers reduced their budgets after changing their hiring policies. Other factors included lower traffic to 転職会議 (a job-change review platform) and a reversal of the temporary increase in budgets from major customers in the same period of the previous year.
