Items this document does not state (15)
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.Revenue increased due to the expansion in scale and higher selling prices for the National Policy Industry Job Research Seminar, the accumulation of contracts under the technical college talent recruitment project, growth in recurring revenue from fees for using the Company's systems and system maintenance and operation, and an increase in high-value projects. Operating profit declined due to higher SG&A expenses resulting from preparations to expand operations, promotion of the "re-KOSEN" project, and the introduction of a shareholder benefit program. Ordinary profit increased due to the recognition of the AKATSUKI Project subsidy as non-operating income, while net income declined due to the recognition of an impairment loss on investment securities as an extraordinary loss.
