The reasons the company gives

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

The company explained that the impact of the situation in the Middle East is limited because demand for moving services in the energy segment is relatively resilient to social conditions, while the human resources segment reduces exposure to economic fluctuations by serving a diverse range of industries. The decision on the battery storage business has been delayed because the Gunma Isesaki No. 2 battery storage facility had not begun trading in the balancing market or confirmed profitability through multi-market trading by the end of the fiscal year.
