Items this document does not state (5)
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 from the Global WiFi business declined due to sluggish business travel demand amid developments in China and the Middle East, as well as shorter trips and lower average prices resulting from changes in travel destinations. Meanwhile, the Information and Communications Services business and the Glamping and Tourism business drove revenue growth. On the earnings front, operating income was slightly below the year-earlier period because upfront investments in the New York office and accounting BPO operations were made as planned.
