The reasons the company gives

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

In the HR business, leading KPIs such as the number of applications and interviews recovered following the restructuring of marketing initiatives and improvements to the operating structure, although there was a time lag before this translated into sales. Meanwhile, the effects of a fundamental review of the cost structure continued. In the investment business, the company reviewed unprofitable transactions and strengthened monitoring. At マルヒロ太田食品, increased participation in department-store events contributed to higher sales and a return to profitability.
