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.Amid steady conditions in the sports market, the company pursued initiatives including communications highlighting the achievements of contracted athletes, its “Head to Toe” proposal, and stronger sales channels. Sales of badminton and tennis products increased. Although selling, general and administrative expenses, including advertising and personnel expenses, rose, the increase in gross profit from higher revenue exceeded the increase in SG&A expenses.
