The reasons the company gives

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

Use of the Tokaido Shinkansen remained firm, and first-half transport revenue for fiscal 2026 exceeded expectations. Although revenue increased in the interim period, operating expenses rose due to higher labor costs and other factors, resulting in declines in operating profit and interim net income attributable to owners of the parent.
