Items this document does not state (11)
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.Revenue increased on growth in recruitment process outsourcing and creative production, planning for the recruitment of international students, business process outsourcing, and shipping services related to local governments. Operating profit was broadly in line with the previous fiscal year due to higher cost of sales and increases in selling, general and administrative expenses, including investments in personnel, venue costs, and business operating expenses. Net income declined because taxable income arose following the elimination of tax loss carryforwards, resulting in higher income taxes and other taxes.
