The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.BtoB commerce performed at generally forecast or better-than-forecast profit margins, while the early closure of new BtoC commerce stores, lower-than-expected profit contribution, and lower HR revenue and slower growth in the number of contracts were factors behind the shortfall against the earnings forecast.
