The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Operating profit was affected by higher selling, general and administrative expenses resulting from the reaction to the concentration of highly profitable projects in the previous fiscal year, increased investment in human capital and digital initiatives, and other factors. Compared with the plan, net sales expanded, but the profit margin fell short of expectations.
