The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The number of pachinko machines sold increased, while pachislot machine sales declined. Due to the status of model certification testing for pachislot machines, only 4 new titles were launched, with 3 titles deferred to the following fiscal year or later. Market conditions included a contraction in the pachinko market and supply constraints for pachislot machines.
