Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

The HR business was affected by the switch to an operating structure aimed at eliminating mismatches in marketing initiatives, the transitional period associated with the strategic shift and the seasonally slow period. Profitability in the investment business improved through the review of unprofitable transactions, stronger business monitoring and strategic narrowing of its business focus. Across the Company, thorough cost structure reforms lowered the break-even point.
