The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue increased as the company deepened relationships with close customers in the First Career business. Although the company absorbed higher costs from investments in the business infrastructure, wage increases and AI investments, the Stakeholder Relations business posted lower profit as a one-off large project from the previous year fell away and investments in the business infrastructure were implemented.
