The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Profitability in the DX Consulting area recovered, increasing gross profit by ¥71 million year on year and driving higher operating profit. Although selling, general and administrative expenses included changes in recruitment costs and amortization of goodwill, total SG&A expenses decreased by ¥2 million. Revenue was affected by slowing growth in the Platform & Agent area and the loss of project revenue recorded in the same quarter of the previous year.
