The reasons the company gives

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

Sales volumes declined because sales targets were not met for multiple machines, including new titles, and the launch of one pachislot machine was postponed, resulting in deterioration in revenue and ordinary income. In addition, research and development expenses increased due to the development of new frames and cabinets and an increase in the number of pachislot machine development lines.
