The reasons the company gives

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

The company says that profitability and its cost structure improved as a result of optimizing costs based on order rates in its BPaaS business and reducing selling, general and administrative expenses. Revenue declined, however, because the number of active client companies fell short of plan and the impact of a large-scale cancellation in the recruitment business remained.
