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

In the domestic Working business, the dispatch and contracting of permanent employees, foreign worker employment support and recruitment services expanded. In the overseas Working business, personnel allocation and hiring plans were optimized based on profitability, high-value-added projects were secured, and recruitment services grew. Foreign exchange effects also contributed to higher profit in the overseas business.
