The reasons the company gives

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

Although Japan’s domestic ST market is expanding, distribution and sales remain confined to existing domestic infrastructure and regulatory frameworks, creating challenges in providing access to overseas investors and improving the efficiency of cross-border settlement.
