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.In direct mail distribution, continued orders for large-lot projects and the acquisition of new customers contributed to higher revenue and profit. In fulfillment, growth in both existing and new projects and the full-scale launch of the Hachioji No. 6 Fulfillment Center contributed to higher revenue and profit. The increase in gross profit in the direct mail business of ¥432 million, the increase in gross profit in the Internet business of ¥9 million, and the increase in gross profit in the apparel business of ¥0.6 million exceeded increases in expenses such as personnel costs and rent.
