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.The main factors behind higher revenue and improved profitability were strong volumes handled for existing major key customers, as well as productivity gains from automation and progress in passing through appropriate price increases in the logistics business. Profit fell short of plan because a large-scale development project in the IT business was still under way but had not yet been recorded in the current quarter, while personnel, materials, and other costs at logistics sites increased.
