The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Profitability improved as a result of a review of the client portfolio, greater operating efficiency centered on the use of AI, and improvements in the earnings structures of group companies. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased as the organization was strengthened, but the increase in gross profit was greater than the increase in expenses.
