These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.

The reasons the company gives

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

The strong performance of the inbound travel, IT development, investment and other business segments, together with the expansion of the business portfolio through M&A and capital and business alliances, supported results despite the slowdown in online travel growth. The treasury share acquisition is intended to enhance shareholder returns and use part of the consideration for future M&A.
