The reasons the company gives

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

The previous fiscal year included revenue from Mission 2 and the former Mission 5, whereas this fiscal year, revenue associated with progress in the development of Mission 4 has been deferred to the second half. On the profit side, the company explained that the primary factor was the recognition in cost of sales in the first quarter of approximately ¥3.7 billion in impairment losses associated with the integration of the lander models and the engine change.
