The promotional services business reported higher sales from new store openings and sales campaigns, catalog production, and the acquisition of projects from local governments. However, overall net sales decreased because the decline in orders resulting from the structural contraction in demand for New Year's cards could not be offset. Profit declined due to higher personnel expenses and other costs resulting from investments in generative AI and security measures and improved compensation to secure personnel and strengthen employee engagement, as well as lower sales in the New Year's card-related business.

The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The promotional services business reported higher sales, driven by new store openings and sales campaigns for major clients, catalog production, and the acquisition of projects from local governments. However, this did not offset the decline in orders for the New Year's card-related business resulting from the structural contraction in demand for New Year's cards, and overall net sales decreased. On the earnings side, personnel expenses and other costs increased due to investments in generative AI and security measures, as well as improved compensation to secure personnel and strengthen employee engagement. Profit declined as upfront expenses increased and sales in the New Year's card-related business decreased.
